"Tea is the god of water, and water is the body of tea, which is beneficial to tea." Our purple bamboo shoot tea Jinshaquan teapot in Changxing County was a tribute tea, a tribute water and a famous pot as early as the Tang Dynasty, and it was even more famous in the Song Dynasty as "purple ou is the best in the world", which can be called "three wonders of tea tasting". Purple bamboo shoot tea is produced in Guzhu Village, Shuikou Township, our county. Here, the mountains hang down, the rivers flow, and the water vapor in Taihu Lake goes straight into the bottom of the valley and evaporates, so it is suitable for tea conditions to make heaven. In the Tang Dynasty, Lu Yu wrote "Tea Classics" here, and Tang Daizong made it tribute tea. During the tea season, the thorn collectors in the two states of Hu and Chang were ordered to enter the country to make tribute tea, with 10,000 laborers, the flag of Guzhu Mountain was set up, and the original boats were everywhere in Taihu Lake, which was unprecedented. Long Fu wrapped tea and silver bottles filled with water, and they were sent to Chang 'an in five batches every year. Lu Yu wrote in the Book of Tea: "Purple is on top, bamboo shoots are on top, and wild people are on top", which is the evaluation of purple bamboo shoot tea. Nowadays, Zizun tea is a national famous tea, and Jinshaquan, which won the gold medal of Beijing Agricultural Expo, is a high-quality mineral water containing radon metasilicate at the foot of Guzhu Mountain. At present, there are brands of mineral water such as Datang Gongquan, Jinshaquan and Jinsha Gongquan on the market. In the Tang dynasty, it was named after "the green spring is full of sand, and it is as bright as Venus". Du Mu, a famous poet in the Tang Dynasty, praised the poem: "Spring is tender and golden, and bud tea is purple." The ancient article "Pinming Tea" said: "Soaking purple bamboo shoots in Jinsha gets all the credit, while soaking purple bamboo shoots in other places only gets half the credit." Purple bamboo shoot tea brewed with Jinsha water, with green color, sweet blue fragrance, refreshing teeth and cheeks and rich taste, is another treasure of Changxing tea culture, enjoying the reputation of the first tea set and winning many awards in China. In particular, it was made into "the world's first giant pot" for ten times, and one of them was placed in front of the hall of China Tea Museum, which added the brilliance of "Changxing Zisha". Changxing's purple sand resources are in the same vein as Taodu Dingshan, and the mud color is purple but not beautiful, red but not gorgeous, black but not ink. After grinding and blending the raw materials, the method of piling, kneading and molding is adopted, or the modeling is based on pine, bamboo, plum, melons and animals, or the Qin Dinghan wares, antiques and figures are copied. The giant pot is as high as a child's height, and the small pot is full of handles, engraved with poems and paintings, which are as expensive as the enamel, and the treasures are the same as the arches. There is a saying that "finding a pot of celebrities is better than priceless treasures".
