Lìchuān hóng

Lìchuān hóng ndi tii wofiira wa gongfu wochokera kumadzulo kwa Hubei, amene anakhala umodzi mwa “ma tii a boma” awiri (pamodzi ndi Enshi Yulu) pambuyo pa msonkhano wotchuka wa tsiku la tii pa Nyanja ya Donghu mu 2018. Chodabwitsa cha “kubvundikira kozizira” (cold turbidity), nthaka yodzaza ndi selenium, ndi mbiri ya zaka zana imodzi ya tii wofiira wotumizidwa kunja zimapangitsa tiyi uyu kukhala woimira bwino “m’badwo watsopano” wa ma hongcha a ku China.

1. Gulu ndi Chiyambi:

• Mtundu: Tii wofiira waku China (红茶, hóngchá), wothira oxidation yonse.
• Gulu: Gongfu-hongcha (工夫红茶, gōngfū hóngchá). M’mbiri, ndi gawo la banja la “Yihong” (宜红, Yíhóng) — “tii wofiira wa gongfu waku Yichang”, umodzi mwa ma gongfu-hongcha anayi akuluakulu a China. Kuyambira 2012, amadziwika ngati mtundu wodziyimira pawokha “Lichuan Gongfu Hongcha” (利川工夫红茶), mwachidule “Lìchuān hóng” (利川红).
• Chiyambi: China, chigawo cha Hubei (湖北省, Húběi Shěng), Enshi-Tujia-Miao Autonomous Prefecture (恩施土家族苗族自治州, Ēnshī Tǔjiāzú Miáozú Zìzhìzhōu), mzinda wa Lichuan (利川市, Lìchuān Shì). Pakatikati pa kupanga ndi tawuni ya Maoba (毛坝镇, Máobà Zhèn) — malo odziwika ngati “kwawo kwa Lìchuān hóng” ndi malo a mbiri yakale a tii wotumiza kunja wa Yihong gongfu-hongcha. Malo ena: matawuni a Zhonglu (忠路镇), Baiyangba (柏杨坝镇), zigawo za Wendou (文斗乡) ndi Shaxi (沙溪乡).
• Ma Coordinates a Geographical: Pafupifupi 30°18′ N, 108°56′ E (Lichuan, pakati; Maoba ndi kum’mwera chakum’mawa, m’chigwa cha mtsinje wa Yujiang, 郁江).

2. Mbiri ndi Tanthauzo la Chikhalidwe:

• Mbiri: Lichuan ndi dera lokhala ndi mbiri ya ulimi wa tii yopitilira zaka 2800: malinga ndi zolemba zakale za komweko (“Lichuan xianzhi”, 利川县志), kulima tii kunayamba m’nthawi ya Western Zhou (西周). M’nthawi ya Ming, “Wudong cha” (雾洞茶, “Tii wochokera ku mapanga a chifunga”) ankatumizidwa ku nyumba yachifumu ngati msonkho.

  Tii wofiira unayamba kupangidwa kuno chapakati pa zaka za m’ma 1800. Mu 1851, pamene chipwirikiti cha Taiping chinasokoneza njira zamalonda zochokera ku Fujian ndi Anhui, alimi akumadzulo kwa Hubei anayamba kutengera luso lopanga tii wofiira kuchokera kwa amalonda aku Guangdong obwera. Wogula wamkulu woyamba anali Jun Dafu (钧大福) wa ku Guangdong, amene ankagula tii wofiira ku Lichuan kuti atumize kunja kudzera ku Yuyangguan (渔洋关) ndi Wuhan. Mu 1876, pamene Yichang anatsegulidwa ngati doko la malonda apadziko lonse, kutumiza kunja kwa tii wofiira kuchokera kumadzulo kwa Hubei kunakula kwambiri: dera lonse “nyumba ndi nyumba zinkabzala mitengo ya tii, pabwalo lililonse ankapanga Yihong” (家家种茶树，户户制宜红). Pofika zaka za m’ma 1880, tii wofiira wochokera ku Lichuan unkatumizidwa kale ku Russia ndi Great Britain.

  Mu 1951, Lichuan adalembedwa mwalamulo m’ndandanda wa maziko apakati a kupanga Yihong gongfu-hongcha. Komabe, m’zaka za zana la 20, tii wakomweko ankangotumizidwa kunja makamaka ngati tii wofiira “wosweka” wotsika mtengo wa m’matumba a tii — pafupifupi 10 yuan pa jin (500 g).

  Kusintha kwakukulu kunachitika mu 1980, pamene katswiri wa zamalonda Song Benduo (宋本多) wa Bureau of Special Products ya m’boma la Lichuan, panthawi yowerengera zinthu, adapeza mitundu iwiri yapadera ya chitsamba cha tii ku Maoba. Mmodzi mwa iwo ndi wotchuka masiku ano “Leng hou hun” (冷后浑, “Kubvundikira kozizira”): tii wopangidwa kuchokera ku masamba ake, akazizira pansi pa ~16 °C, amapanga “mawonekedwe a mkaka” omwe amachokanso pamene atenthedwanso — chizindikiro cha kuchuluka kwapadera kwa theaflavins. Wachiwiri ndi wakucha msanga “Maoba zao yi” (毛坝早一), wokhala ndi fungo lapadera la katatu (嫩香、栗香、花香).

  Mu 2012, kampani ya komweko “Feiqiang Chaye” (飞强茶业, kenako “Xingdoushan Hongcha”, 星斗山红茶) motsogozedwa ndi tiyi master Qiu Jianhong (邱建红) inayambitsa kusintha kwa mtundu: m’malo mwa “Lichuan Yihong”, tiyiyo inatchedwa “Lichuan Gongfu Hongcha” — “Lìchuān hóng”. Qiu Jianhong adapanga luso lapadera la “anayi aukali — asanu ndi atatu osalala” (四粗八精, sì cū bā jīng), ndipo adapanganso chipangizo choyanika choyendetsa magetsi chokhala ndi kutentha kosasintha, kuthetsa vuto la kusakhazikika kwa ubwino pakukonza mtundu wapadera wa “Leng hou hun”.

  Mu 2017, Lìchuān hóng adalandira udindo wa Geographical Indication Protected Product (地理标志保护产品). Ndipo pa 28 April 2018, tiyiyo inalowa pa siteji ya padziko lonse: pa msonkhano wotchuka wa “Tii pa Nyanja ya Donghu” (东湖茶叙) ku Wuhan, kumene atsogoleri a China ndi India anakumana, Lìchuān hóng inaperekedwa ngati umodzi mwa “ma tii a boma” awiri — pamodzi ndi Enshi Yulu (恩施玉露). Mphindi imeneyi inakweza kwambiri kudziwika kwa mtundu ndipo inasandutsa Lìchuān hóng kukhala imodzi mwa tii wofiira wofunidwa kwambiri ku China.

  Pofika mu 2024, malo a minda ya tii ku Lichuan apitilira 27 万亩 (pafupifupi 18,000 ha), kuchuluka kwa kupanga pachaka ndi 24,600 tani, mtengo wonse wa gawo la tii ndi wopitilira 33 biliyoni yuan. Luso lopanga Lìchuān hóng lalembedwa mu Ndandanda ya Cholowa Chosagwirika cha Chikhalidwe cha chigawo cha Hubei.

• Dzina: “Lichuan” (利川) ndi dzina la mzinda, kwenikweni: “li” (利) — “zopindulitsa, zabwino”, “chuan” (川) — “mtsinje, chigwa pakati pa mapiri”. Monga momwe zolembedwera m’mbiri yakomweko: “Zigwa ndi mapiri a m’mphepete mwa mtsinje wa Qingjiang zimasakanikirana ndi mapiri — uku ndi ‘mtsinje wopindulitsa’” (有利之川). “Hong” (红) — “wofiira”, kutanthauza mtundu wa tii.

• Tanthauzo la chikhalidwe: Lìchuān hóng si tii chabe, koma chizindikiro cha kusintha kwachuma kwa dera lonse. Maoba wamapiri, m’zaka za m’ma 1980 anali amodzi mwa malo osauka kwambiri kumadzulo kwa Hubei, lero akutukuka chifukwa cha mafakitale a tii. Tii wakhala “njira” yopititsa chikhalidwe cha mtundu wa Tujia m’moyo watsiku ndi tsiku wa China yense ndi misika yakunja. Ku Maoba, mwambo wapadera wa “kukumbukira tii” (茶叶孝文化) ukusungidwabe: madzulo a Chaka Chatsopano cha China, makapu awiri a tii amaikidwa pa guwa la banja kwa makolo; ngati m’mawa tiiyo yabvundikira — zikutanthauza kuti mizimu ya makolo yalandira choperekacho, ndipo chaka chidzakhala chabwino. Chikhulupirirochi chikugwirizana ndi khalidwe la “Leng hou hun” la komweko ndipo kwenikweni ndiko kufotokozera kwachikhalidwe kwa chodabwitsa cha “kubvundikira kozizira”. Lichuan ili ndi udindo wa mtundu wa subregional wa “Enshi Xi Cha” (恩施硒茶, “Tii wa Selenium wa Enshi”).

3. Kufotokozera kwa Zomera ndi Zopangira:

• Mitundu / Cultivar: Maziko a zopangira ndi ma cultivar angapo:
  • Leng hou hun (冷后浑, Lěng hòu hún): Mtundu wapadera wakomweko, wopezeka mu 1980 m’mudzi wa Jiabi (夹壁村). Zitsamba zimasonyeza kukula kwachilendo: zaka zinayi zoyamba nthambi zimakwera mopingasa, ndipo pokhapokha pamene “zimakumana” pamwamba, zimayamba kukwera molunjika. Kuphukira kumakhala kochepa, zokolola nzochepa, zidodolizo sizimamera bwino — zonsezi zimapangitsa kuti zipangizo zikhale zodula ndi zochepa. Ndi cultivar imeneyi yomwe imapereka tii wokhala ndi “kubvundikira kozizira” kwake — chizindikiro cha Lìchuān hóng.
  • Maoba zao yi (毛坝早一): Mtundu wakomweko wakucha msanga, womwe umachita maluwa masiku 20 msanga kuposa mitundu wamba, wokhala ndi “funso lapadera la katatu” — kutsitsimuka kwachifundo, mtedza, ndi maluwa.
  • Mitundu yosankhidwa: Zhongcha 108 (中茶108), Echa 10 hao (鄂茶10号), Echa 1 hao (鄂茶1号), Zhuye qi (槠叶齐), komanso magulu ang’onoang’ono a masamba a komweko.
