Different appearances of China green tea in various poses are its important characteristics. Therefore, the quality evaluation points of China green tea first focus on appearance.

　　The shape of the long stir-fried green requires a tight, even, sharp, green color. The green China green tea is still tight and straight, with sharp, sharp, dark green color. The shape of bead tea is required to be round like beads, heavy and even, and green in color. The steamed green sencha has a straight shape and a dark green color.

　　The color of the famous China green tea generally requires emerald green, but the common drawback is the color is dark or dark, which is mainly due to insufficient finishing, excessive twisting, or long accumulation time of the product.

　　In addition to the quality of China green tea, the internal quality is also very important. The internal quality of China green tea generally requires high and long-lasting aroma. The soup is bright yellow and green, and the taste is strong but not astringent, fresh but not light.
