"Daguan Tea Theory" was originally called "Daguan Tea Theory". It was a monograph on tea written by Zhao Ji, Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty. Since it was written in the first year of Daguan (1107), later generations called it "Daguan Tea Theory". There are 20 chapters in the book, which provide detailed descriptions of the origin, collection, cooking, quality, and tea-fighting customs of steamed green tea in the Northern Song Dynasty. One of them, "Ordering Tea," contains insightful insights and profound discussions. It reflects the development of my country's tea industry and tea-making technology since the Northern Song Dynasty from one aspect. It is a comprehensive tea theory work of the Song Dynasty.
Reader comments
This book "Daguan Tea Theory" describes in detail the origin, production, and tasting of tea during the Northern Song Dynasty. It feels so professional! Moreover, the author Zhao Ji's insight in the article "Ordering Tea" was very profound and gave me a new understanding of tea culture. Thinking of my uncle who loved tea, he was very particular about making tea every time. After reading this book, I finally understood why he was so obsessed with it. The author also mentioned Lu Yu, saying that when he tasted tea, the tea produced by Gu Zhu was the best. I think this book should be a valuable read for tea lovers.
The talented emperor created a thin gold script to write the Tea Sutra, and made a picture of hibiscus and golden pheasant [learned]
