Jiangsu Sheyang County Shejiu Farm is the birthplace of the former peak snow lotus, which is located in the foothills of the Wufeng Mountain in the Tianyu Mountain. Here the topography, soil, climate and other ecological conditions are good and suitable for the growth of tea trees. Tea trees grow on the slopes of the hills and are the best varieties introduced from Fujian province, the former peak of Saussurea. Harvesting begins before and after Qingming each year. The standard for picking is budding buds that have not been newly emerged. The buds are about 2.5 cm long and the buds are 0.2-0.3 cm thick.
Usually 500 grams of high-quality snow lotus tea need to use 6.0 to 62,000 tea pods. The young shoots and abundant ingredients provide the natural conditions for the quality of snow lotus tea. The buds picked up must be culled and the fish leaves, monoliths and other inclusions should be removed to maintain the evenness of the raw materials.

The well-picked buds are spread on the bamboo poles and spread for 1 to 2 hours until the surface water evaporates. The main process of frying is: fixing, rubbing, kneading, drying and drying.
The former peak snow lotus is one of the famous teas newly created in the 1980s in Jiangsu Province.

Jiangsu Sheyang County Shejiu Farm is the birthplace of the former peak snow lotus, which is located in the foothills of the Wufeng Mountain in the Tianyu Mountain. Here the topography, soil, climate and other ecological conditions are good and suitable for the growth of tea trees. Tea trees grow on the slopes of the hills and are the fine varieties of Fuding white tea imported from Fujian. Harvesting begins before and after Qingming each year. The standard for picking is budding buds that have not been newly emerged. The buds are about 2.5 cm long and the buds are 0.2-0.3 cm thick. Usually 500 grams of high-quality snow lotus tea need to use 6.0 to 62,000 tea pods. The young shoots and abundant ingredients provide the natural conditions for the quality of snow lotus tea. The buds picked up must be culled and the fish leaves, monoliths and other inclusions should be removed to maintain the evenness of the raw materials. The well-picked buds are spread on the bamboo poles and spread for 1 to 2 hours until the surface water evaporates.
The main process of frying is: fixing, rubbing, kneading, drying and drying.
Fixing: High-temperature fixation, shake-based, combined with stir-fried, appropriate rotary stir-fry, to dehydration, passivation enzyme activity, stop the purpose of changes in the contained material. The temperature of the crushing pot is controlled at 150-180°C, and the amount of leaf is 200-250 g, which lasted for about 5 minutes. After the pot is opened, the young leaves are placed in the bamboo basket and shaken to cool and rubbed.
Rubbing process should pay attention to the solution to block heat, to prevent the yellow color of the leaves, the fragrance is less cool. Rubbing lasted about 5 minutes.
Rubbing is obvious: the purpose is to make the appearance of the cord curl, velvet reveal. Pot temperature to grasp the principle of low, high and low, the pot pot temperature around 60 °C. Began to use shaking and squeaking techniques, put the tea in both hands, rubbing in the same direction, sometimes rubbing, sometimes shaking to disperse the block to prevent tea lumps. The weight of the pods is heavy to light, and the toughness of the buds is relatively large. It is easy to be shaped. It must be rubbed tightly to make it tightly knotted and curled. The velvet is gradually exposed, the tangs are not broken, and the water content of the buds Reduction, leaf quality gradually hardened, the force should be light, to prevent damage to the antler, mashed tea. When the shoots reach 70% or 80% dry, they enter the slow drying process. It took about 15 minutes to rub it. The forward Xuelian first-grade stick produced by Jiaohe Tea House.

Pharmacological effects
The colchicine contained in the former peak of Saussurea is a typical representative of cell mitosis. It can inhibit the growth of cancer cells and is used clinically to treat cancer. It has a certain curative effect on breast cancer in particular, and it can be used for skin cancer, leukemia and Hejin. The disease also has a role. The specific effects of acute onset of gout, 12-24 hours to reduce inflammation and rapid pain, long-term use can reduce the number of attacks.
Yangwei Huwei: People who drink green tea without eating will feel uncomfortable in the stomach. This is because tea polyphenols contain important substances, such as tea polyphenols, which have astringent and stimulate the stomach. They are fasting. The situation is more irritating. The former peak snow lotus is not the same. It is fermented and baked, and tea polyphenols undergo enzymatic oxidation reaction under the action of oxidase, and the content is reduced, and the irritation to the stomach is reduced accordingly. The former peak snow lotus not only does not hurt the stomach, but can stomach. Regular consumption of snow lotus, the former peak of adding sugar and milk, can reduce inflammation and protect the gastric mucosa. It also has a certain effect on the treatment of ulcers.
Dental care effectiveness: Japanese scientists have confirmed that drinking more green tea can help prevent tooth decay, and a new study recently showed that the former peak has a protective effect. The study conducted at the University of Illinois at Chicago showed that: the former peak snow lotus can prevent plaque, prevent tooth decay and gum disease.
Research shows that the volunteers who participated in the trial rinsed the top peak of snow lotus ten times a day, one minute at a time, and their plaque was significantly less than others. Frequent use of the former peak Saussurea can prevent bacteria from forming dental plaque, or mixed with sugar and food particles to produce acidic substances that erode teeth.
The former peak snow lotus can produce this effect because it itself contains a chemical called "polyphenols." This substance inhibits the production of glucosyltransferases by bacteria. This enzyme decomposes sucrose to produce a viscous “jelly†that mixes with more than 300 bacteria in the plaque and fixes it on the tooth surface.
Former peak snow lotus
For a long time, the former peak was well-recognized by Saussurea. In addition to its excellent tea quality and thirst-quenching, it also has special medicinal effects. The ancient pharmacological function of Saussurea has been recorded for a long time, and Qing Xueming Zhao Xuemin’s “Herb Steel Supplement†Cloud : "The former peak of Saussurea is mild and fragrant, ... bitterness is carved, solution of greasy cattle and sheep poison, and emptiness is disabled. Bitter and bitter phlegm, dejection of intestinal passage. The former peak of snow lotus paste is black, sobering first, the green is more. Good, digestion and phlegm, Qingwei Sheng Jin, especially great skill too." With the changes of modern living environment, carcinogenic factors are ubiquitous. Modern people can be said to be in the shadow of cancer. In fact, as early as ten years ago, the anti-cancer effect of the former Xuelian has long been studied by medical schools. It was confirmed and recognized internationally in the 1991 International Conference on Oncology in the Asia Pacific Region.
