Xiāngshān Gòngchá

Xiāngshān Gòngchá (香山贡茶, Xiāngshān gòngchá) ndi tiyi wobiriwira wa mbiri yakale wochokera ku msumba wa Fèngjié (奉节县, Fèngjié Xiàn), umene uli pakhomo la ma Genge atatu a mtsinje wa Yangtze (长江三峡), m’munsi mwa linga lodziwika bwino la White Emperor Báidìchéng (白帝城, Báidìchéng). Fèngjié ndi mzinda wakale wa Kuízhōu (夔州, Kuízhōu), “Khomo la ma Genge Atatu,” malo amene Du Fu (杜甫) analembera ndakatulo zoposa 400, ndipo phiri la Qútáng Xiá (瞿塘峡, Qútáng Xiá) — “Mmero wa Yangtze” — likujambulidwa pa ndalama ya 10 yuan. M’nthawi ya Tang, tiyi wochokera ku Kuízhōu anali m’gulu la gòngchá (贡茶) omwe amatchulidwa mu “Zowonjezera ku Mbiri ya Dziko” (《国史补》) ya Li Zhào monga “夔州香雨” (“Mvula yonunkhira ya Kuízhōu”). Lù Yǔ m’buku lake la “Lamulo la Tiyi” (《茶经》) anaika Kuízhōu m’mndandanda wa zigawo zopanga tiyi. Patatha zaka zambiri akumwalidwa, tiyiyu adaumbidwanso mu 1991 ndipo pofika 2023 adalandira “Gold Cup ya Zhōng Chá” (中茶杯金奖) kawiri. Tekinoloje yatsopano imaphatikizapo magwiridwe 28 a ntchito, ndipo chizindikiro chake chachikulu ndi “fungo la mcheste” (栗香) limene limapangidwa ndi “ntchito yoyaka” (火工, huǒ gōng) yolondola kumapeto kwa ntchito yowumitsa.

1. Magulu ndi Chiyambi:

• Mtundu: Tiyi wobiriwira (osapangidwa fermentation, 绿茶, lǜchá). Kukonza masamba obiriwira kumachitika ndi kuotcha mu makina ozungulira pa 160–180 °C (滚筒杀青). Kuumitsa komaliza ndi kophatikizana: kuumitsa koyamba pa 90–100 °C → kupanga ndi manja → kutsegula fungo komaliza pa 80–90 °C → “kuphulika kwa moto” (猛火, měng huǒ) pa 110 °C kwa masekondi atatu.

• Gulu: Tiyi wa mbiri yotchuka (历史名茶). Gòngchá wa nthawi ya Tang — m’mphepo umodzi mwa tiyi pafupifupi 20 omwe amatchulidwa mu “Mbiri Yatsopano ya Tang” (《新唐书·地理志》) monga msonkho wa Kuízhōu Yún’ān Jùn. Golide pa Chiwonetsero cha Ulimi cha Dziko Lonse (1995). Golide pa “Zhōng Chá Bēi” (中茶杯金奖, 2023). Golide pa Mpango wa Chongqing wa “Dòu Chá” (重庆斗茶大赛金奖, 2023). Kupanga kumachitika m’mitundu iwiri ya fungo: “la mcheste” (栗香型, lì xiāng xíng, lalikulu) ndi “lobiriwira loyera” (清香型, qīng xiāng xíng, ndi ntchito yoyaka yopepuka).

• Chiyambi: China; mzinda wa Chongqing (重庆市, Chóngqìng Shì); msumba wa Fèngjié (奉节县, Fèngjié Xiàn), wakale Kuízhōu (夔州). Mzinda wapakati pa mtengo wake wabwino ndi tawuni ya Báidì (白帝镇, Báidì Zhèn), malo a kachisi wa Xiāngshān Sì (香山寺, Xiāngshān Sì, “Kachisi wa Phiri la Fungo”), kumtunda kwa 500–900 m — “mzere wamitambo ndi nkhungu.” Kuwonjezera — tawuni ya Xīnmín (新民镇, Xīnmín Zhèn), minda ya tiyi yam’mphepete mwa mitsinje.

• Koordinati za geographi: ~31°00′–31°30′ N, 109°00′–109°40′ E (gawo la Fèngjié, khomo la ma Genge Atatu).

2. Mbiri ndi Tanthauzo la Chikhalidwe:

• Mbiri:

Kuízhōu (夔州) ndi amodzi mwa madera akale kwambiri opanga tiyi ku China, otchulidwa ndi Lù Yǔ m’buku la “Lamulo la Tiyi” (《茶经》, zaka za zana la 8) m’mndandanda wa madera opanga. Mu “Mbiri Yatsopano ya Tang” (《新唐书·地理志》), dera la Kuízhōu Yún’ān Jùn (夔州云安郡) limatchulidwa kuti limapereka tiyi monga msonkho. Lǐ Zhào (李肇), wolemba mbiri wa nthawi ya Tang, mu “Zowonjezera ku Mbiri ya Dziko” (《国史补》), anatchula gòngchá odziwika, ndipo m’menemo munali “夔州香雨” (“Mvula yonunkhira ya Kuízhōu”), yomwe inkapangidwa pafupi ndi Phiri la Xiāngshān pafupi ndi Báidìchéng.

Mu nthawi ya Sòng, “宾化早春” (“Kumwera koyambirira kwa Bīnhuà”) kuchokera ku Fèngjié kunkatchuka mu likulu — monga umboni wa “Jianyán Zájì” (《建炎杂记》). “Bīnhuà” ndi dzina lakale la malo ena a Fèngjié, ndipo “kumwera koyambirira” kumasonyeza kuchedwa kwa tiyi wapafupi chifukwa cha nyengo yotentha yam’mipata. M’nthawi ya Ming, Huáng Yīzhèng (黄一正) mu encyclopaedia ya “Shìwù Gànzhū” (《事物绀珠·茶类》), analemba “夔州香山茶” — “Tiyi wa Phiri Lonunkhira ku Kuízhōu,” kukhazikitsa ubale pakati pa Phiri la Xiāngshān ndi mwambo wa tiyi. Chifukwa chake, Xiāngshān Gòngchá ali ndi “mzere wolembedwa” wopitirira zaka chikwi chimodzi: Tang (Lǐ Zhào, Lù Yǔ) → Sòng (Jianyán Zájì) → Ming (Huáng Yīzhèng).

Kumapeto kwa Qing ndi mu nthawi ya nkhondo za zaka za zana la 20, luso linatayika. Kubwera kwatsopano kunayambika mu 1991: akuluakulu a Fèngjié anaphatikiza zidutswa za njira zakale ndi miyezo yamakono ndikubwezeretsa kupanga. Mu 1995, tiyi adalandira golide pa Chiwonetsero cha Ulimi cha Dziko Lonse (中国农博会金奖). Mu 2023 — kupambana kawiri: “Zhōng Chá Bēi” (中茶杯金奖) ndi Mpango wa Chongqing wa “Dòu Chá” (重庆斗茶大赛金奖).

• Dzina: 香山 (Xiāngshān) — “Phiri Lonunkhira” — phiri pafupi ndi Fèngjié, pomwe pali kachisi wakale wa Xiāngshān Sì; 贡茶 (Gòngchá) — “tiyi wa msonkho,” “tiyi wopereka kwa mfumu.” Tanthauzo lathunthu: “Gòngchá wa ku Phiri Lonunkhira.”

• Tanthauzo la chikhalidwe: Fèngjié ndi malo a ndakatulo ndi mbiri yapadera kwambiri. Pano, mu linga la White Emperor (白帝城), Liú Bèi (刘备) anapereka wolowa m’malo kwa Zhūgě Liàng (诸葛亮) — chimodzi mwa zochitika zamphamvu mu “Ufumu wa Atatu.” Ndipo pano Du Fu anakhala zaka ziwiri (766–768), akulemba ndakatulo zoposa 400 — pafupifupi gawo limodzi mwa magawo atatu a ntchito zake zonse, kuphatikizapo “Magulu asanu ndi atatu a maganizo a nthawi yozizira” (秋兴八首). Qútáng Xiá — khomo la ma Genge Atatu — likujambulidwa pa ndalama ya 10 yuan. Lǐ Bái (李白) analemba ndakatulo yodziwika “Kunyamuka molawirira kuchokera ku Báidichéng” (早发白帝城): “朝辞白帝彩云间，千里江陵一日还” — “M’mawa ndikusiya Mfumu Yoyera pakati pa mitambo yamitundumitundu, mpaka ku Jiānglíng makilomita chikwi — patsiku limodzi.” Tiyi wa Xiāngshān ndi kupitiriza kwa mzere wa chikhalidwe uwu: chakumwa chobadwira m’mapiri omwewo amene analimbikitsa olemba ndakatulo akuluakulu a China. Linga la Báidichéng, lomwe linakwezedwa ndi madzi pambuyo pa kumanga damu, lasanduka chilumba — tsopano lili pachilumba pakati pa mtsinje, zomwe zimapereka mawonekedwe olemekeza kwambiri.

3. Kufotokoza kwa Botanical ndi Zipangizo:

• Mtundu / cultivar: Zazikulu — Fúdǐng Dà Háo Chá (福鼎大毫茶) ndi Fúdǐng Dà Bái Chá (福鼎大白茶) — 70% ya minda. Zonsezi ndi mitundu ya clonal yoyambirira ndi tsitsi lambiri komanso kuchuluka kwa amino acid, zochokera ku Fujian, koma zosinthika bwino ndi nyengo yamapiri ya m’mipata. Ndiwo tsitsi lambiri (毫, háo) wa Fúdǐng Dà Háo lomwe limapanga mtundu wosiyanasiyana wa “silver-green” wa tsamba louma. Zowonjezera — mtundu wamagulu a masamba apakatikati a Sichuan (四川中小叶群体种) — tchire zenizeni zachibadwidwe zomwe zasinthidwa ndi nyengo yapadera ya “Khomo la ma Genge,” ndi Míngshān Zǎo (名山早, Míngshān Zǎo) — mtundu woyambirira wa Sichuan womwe umalola kuti kukolola kuyambe masiku 5–7 pamaso pa Qingming.

• Kukolola: M’chaka — pafupi ndi Qingming (清明, koyambirira kwa April). Mulingo woyamba — mphukira ndi tsamba limodzi lotseguka pang’ono (一芽一叶初展). Nkoletsedwa kutola mphukira zofiirira, zodwala, kapena zowonongeka.

• Zomwe zikufunika pa zipangizo: Mphukira zofewa, zofanana zopanda chilema.

4. Terroir ndi Makhalidwe a Kulima:

Fèngjié ili kum’mawa kwa Chongqing, kumadzulo kwa khomo la mtsinje wa Qútáng Xiá — “Mmero wa Yangtze.” Maphiri a ma Genge Atatu akupanga nyengo yapadera.

• Kutalika kwa kumera: 500–900 m — “mzere wamitambo ndi nkhungu” (云雾带, yúnwù dài). Pakati pake ndi mapiri a Phiri la Xiāngshān, oyang’ana ku Yangtze.

• Nyengo: Chigawochapakati cha sub-tropiki. Kutentha kwapakatikati kwa pachaka 15.2 °C; chinyezi ≥75%; masiku a nkhungu 45–52 pachaka; kusintha kwakukulu kwa kutentha tsiku ndi usiku — chifukwa cha mtsinje wakuya, pomwe mpweya wozizira wochokera kumtsinje umakwera mmapiri usiku ndikutsika masana. Nyengo ya “kupuma” iyi imalimbikitsa kusonkhanitsa kwa amino acid.

• Dothi: Dongo la purpulo lakuda (暗紫泥土, àn zǐ ní tǔ) ndi dongo lachikasu-mchenga lozizira (冷沙黄泥土, lěng shā huáng ní tǔ), pH 4.0–6.5. Dothi lakuya, lolemeretsedwa ndi organic. Dongo la purpulo ndi mtundu wodziwika wa dothi la beseni la Sichuan-Chongqing, lolemera ndi potaziyamu ndi trace elements.

• Ecology: Minda ya tiyi imayendetsedwa mwamfundo zachilengedwe: manyowa amakemikolo ndi mankhwala ophera tizilombo n’zoletsedwa. Kuyandikira kwa mtsinje wa Yangtze kumapereka chinyezi chosalekeza ndikuchepetsa kutentha kwakukulu. Mapiri oyang’ana ku Yangtze amalandira kuwala kowonekera pamwamba pa madzi, kumawonjezera kuwala konse ndi 10–15% ndikusunga gawo lalikulu la kuwala kowalika. Pambuyo pa kumanga damu la ma Genge Atatu (三峡大坝, 2006), madzi anakwezeka, kumawonjezera chinyezi ndi nkhungu m’dera la Fèngjié — zomwe, malinga ndi alimi a tiyi, zinasintha mkhalidwe wolima tiyi. Minda ina yam’mphepete inamizidwa, koma minda yamtunda (500–900 m) sinavutike, m’malomwake inapindula ndi mitambo yowonjezeka.

5. Tekinoloje Yopangira:

Tekinoloje yamakono ya Xiāngshān Gòngchá imaphatikizapo magwiridwe 28 (非遗28道工序), kuphatikiza njira zobwezeretsedwa zakale ndi zida zamagetsi zomwe sizimaphatikizapo kununkhiza kwa utsi.

• Kuyika pansi (摊放 — tān fàng): Maola 4–8 — motalikirapo kuposa pafupifupi, kuti apangitse zotsogolera za fungo.

• Kukhazikitsa masamba obiriwira (杀青 — shāqīng): Kuwotcha mu makina ozungulira (滚筒杀青) pa 160–180 °C.

• Kukama (揉捻 — róuniǎn): Kugubuduzika ndi manja (手工滚揉, shǒugōng gǔnróu), pafupifupi mphindi 20. Kupanga ulusi wowongoka, wothina.

• Kuumitsa koyamba (初烘 — chū hōng): Pa 90–100 °C.

• Kupanga ndi manja (整形 — zhěng xíng): “Kukama ndi manja kukhala ulusi” (手工搓条定形, shǒugōng cuō tiáo dìng xíng) — gawo lofunika kwambiri popanga mawonekedwe a “chigawo chowongoka” (紧秀匀直).

• Kusankha (拣剔 — jiǎn tī): Kuchotsa tizigawo tomwe sitali toyenera.

• Kuumitsa komaliza / kutsegula fungo (足火提香 — zú huǒ tí xiāng): Kuumitsa kwakukulu pa 80–90 °C → “kuphulika kwa moto” komaliza (猛火, měng huǒ) pa 110 °C kwa masekondi 3. Mgwirizano wotentha kwambiri wamsanga uwu — ndi chinsinsi cha “fungo la mcheste” (栗香). Kulondola kwa kuwongolera moto n’kofunika kwambiri: ngati achulukitse masekondi 1–2, fungo limasanduka “lopsya.”

• Chidziwitso: Zida zamagetsi zalowa m’malo mwa makala amtengo — izi zimachotsa fungo lina lililonse la utsi, ndikusunga kuyera kwa fungo la “mcheste.”

6. Makhalidwe a Organoleptic:

• Maonekedwe a tsamba louma: Ulusi wowongoka, wothina, wadongosolo (条索紧秀匀直), ndi “nsonga” zoonekera (锋苗显露). Mtundu — “wobiriwira wa siliva ndi undertone ya yade” (银绿隐翠, yín lǜ yǐn cuì).

• Fungo la tsamba louma: La mcheste (栗香, lì xiāng) — lalikulu, lapamwamba ndi lokhalitsa. Zotsatira za “ntchito yoyaka” yolondola kumapeto.

• Fungo la infusion: La mcheste wobiriwira, lolemera ndi lokhalitsa. Pakazizira — zizindikiro zopepuka za “mkate.”

• Kukoma: Kwatsopano (鲜爽) ndipo nthawi yomweyo kukoma kotsukidwa (回甘, huígān) — kukoma kwakumbuyo kwakutali. Kugwirizana kwa kutsitsimula ndi “kuthina.”

• Mtundu wa infusion: Wobiriwira wofewa, wowala ndi wonyezimira (嫩绿清澈).

• Pansi pa tiyi (tsamba lophikidwa): Wachikasu-wobiriwira, wowala ndi wofanana (黄绿明亮匀整).

7. Kapangidwe ka Mankhwala:

• Polyphenols (茶多酚): Mulingo wapamwamba — umapereka mphamvu yayikulu ya antioxidant. Malinga ndi magwero, mphamvu yothetsera ma free radicals ndi yokulirapo nthawi 18 kuposa vitamini E.

• Amino acids (氨基酸): Mulingo wabwino — umapereka kutsitsimuka koonekera (鲜爽). L-theanine ndi yayikulu. Kusintha kwakukulu kwa kutentha tsiku ndi usiku m’mitsinje kumalimbikitsa kusonkhanitsa kwa amino acids monga cryoprotectants.

• Caffeine (咖啡碱): Wochuluka — umapereka mphamvu yolimbitsa m’thupi, malinga ndi magwero ndi wokulirapo ndi 30% kuposa pafupifupi pa tiyi wobiriwira.

• Catechin (儿茶素): Kuphatikizapo EGCG — gawo lalikulu la polyphenol, lomwe limayambitsa mphamvu ya antioxidant ndi kulimbikitsa kagayidwe ka mafuta.

• Mavitamini: Vitamini C, vitamini za gulu B, vitamini E.

• Mchere: Potaziyamu, manganese, fluoride; zizindikiro za trace elements zochokera mu dothi la purpulo.

8. Ubwino Wathanzi:

• Chitetezo cha antioxidant: Polyphenols + vitamini C — kuthetsa kophatikizana kwa ma free radicals.

• Mphamvu yolimbitsa m’thupi: Caffeine wochuluka pamodzi ndi L-theanine — mphamvu yofewa, yotalika yopanda nkhawa.

• Kuthandiza kagayidwe: Catechin imalimbikitsa kuyenda kwa matumbo ndi kufulumizitsa kugawanika kwa mafuta.

• Ntchito zamaganizo: L-theanine imalimbikitsa ntchito ya ubongo ya alpha wave.

• Chofunika: Ubwino umenewu ukuchokera ku chidziwitso chachikhalidwe ndipo si chipangizo cha zachipatala. Osamwa ndi mimba yopanda kanthu. Tiyi watsopano asungike kwa masiku 7–15 kuti “achotse moto.” Pakatsegulidwa, sungani mosamala.

9. Kupamba:

• Kutentha kwa madzi: 85–90 °C. Osagwiritsa ntchito madzi owira (>90 °C kumawononga kutsitsimuka ndi kuyambitsa kuwawa).

• Kuchuluka kwa tiyi: 3 g pa 150 ml (chiyelekanitso 1:50).

• Zida: Gaiwan ya porcelain yoyera (白瓷盖碗) — kuti asonkhanitse fungo la mcheste. Kapu yagalasi — kuti muwone “mphukira zoyimirira” (芽叶竖立).

• Ndondomeko (gaiwan): Kutsuka kwa masekondi 5 → kuthira koyamba — mphindi 1–2 → aliyense wotsatira + masekondi 30.

• Ndondomeko (kapu yagalasi): Thirani madzi pa 80–85 °C, mphika kwa mphindi 2. Onani “mphukira zoyimirira” — ulusi wobiriwira wa siliva ndi tsitsi loyera ukutsika pang’onopang’ono molunjika, ndikupanga mawonekedwe a “nkhalango ya yade m’madzi a galasi.” Kutheka kubwereza 3–5; fungo la mcheste limawonekera kwambiri mu infusions yoyamba ndi yachiwiri.

10. Kusunga:

• Kutentha: 0–5 °C (mufiriji), mosindikizidwa.
• Kuwala: Kudzipatula kwathunthu.
• Nthawi: Oyenera m’miyezi 6 yoyambirira. Tiyi watsopano — asungike masiku 7–15 “醒茶” kuti achotse “moto.”

11. Mtengo ndi Zoyipa:

Xiāngshān Gòngchá ndi tiyi wa mtengo wapakatikati ndi wapamwamba. Gulu lapamwamba — kuchokera pa 800 yuan/jin; loyamba — 400–700 yuan/jin; lachiwiri — 200–400 yuan/jin.

• Momwe mungapewe zoyipa:

  • Chiyambi — Fèngjié, Chongqing.
  • Fungo la mcheste (栗香) — chizindikiro cha “kuphulika kwa moto” pa 110 °C. Kusapezeka kwake ndi chizindikiro cha chinachake.
  • Mawonekedwe — ulusi wowongoka, wadongosolo ndi “nsonga” (锋苗显露). Zokhotakhota kapena zopanda mawonekedwe — si Xiāngshān.
  • Mtundu — “wobiriwira wa siliva ndi undertone ya yade” (银绿隐翠). Wotumbululuka kapena wachikasu — kuphwanya kwa teknoloji.

12. Zinthu Zosangalatsa:

• Tiyi pa ndalama ya 10 yuan: Phiri la Qútáng Xiá (瞿塘峡) — “Mmero wa Yangtze,” lojambulidwa kumbuyo kwa ndalama ya 10 yuan, — lili pamtunda wa makilomita angapo kuchokera ku minda ya tiyi ya Xiāngshān. Tiyi amamera kwenikweni “pa ndalama.”

• Du Fu ndi tiyi: Wolemba ndakatulo wamkulu adakhala ku Kuízhōu zaka ziwiri (766–768), akulemba ndakatulo >400. Mwa zina, amatchula tiyi ndi mchere wa kumaloko — zinthu ziwiri zofunika kwambiri ku Kuízhōu. Chifukwa chake, Xiāngshān Gòngchá ndi amodzi mwa tiyi ochepa omwe ali ndi “mzere wa ndakatulo” kuchokera kwa wolemba ndakatulo wamkulu wa China.

• White Emperor ndi tiyi: Báidìchéng (白帝城) ndi linga limene mu 223 Liú Bèi yemwe anali pafupi kufa anapereka wolowa m’malo wake m’manja mwa Zhūgě Liàng. Chochitika ichi ndi chimodzi mwa zodziwika bwino mu chikhalidwe cha China. Minda ya tiyi ya Xiāngshān ili pamtunda womwewo wa linga — tiyi wokhala ndi mawonedwe a mbiri yakale.

• Magwiridwe 28: Tekinoloje yamakono ya Xiāngshān Gòngchá imaphatikizapo magwiridwe 28 otsatizana — imodzi mwa ndandanda zazitali kwambiri za tiyi pakati pa tiyi wobiriwira. Poyerekezera, tiyi wobiriwira wamba amapita pa magwiridwe 5–8.

• “Kuphulika kwa moto” — masekondi 3 pa 110 °C: “猛火” (mènghuǒ, “moto waukali”) womaliza umakhala masekondi atatu enieni ndipo umapanga “fungo la mcheste.” Sekondi imodzi kapena ziwiri zowonjezera — ndipo fungo limasanduka “lopsya.” Iyi ndi imodzi mwa njira zolondola kwambiri za “moto” mu luso lovuta la tiyi ku China.

• Damu la ma Genge Atatu ndi tiyi: Pambuyo pa kumalizidwa kwa damu lalikulu kwambiri padziko lonse la “Three Gorges” (三峡大坝, 2006), madzi a mtsinje m’dera la Fèngjié anakwezeka ndi mamita makumi angapo. Kuwonjezeka kwa madzi kumawonjezera kutentha ndi nkhungu — zomwe, malinga ndi zowonera, zinasintha nyengo yokomera minda ya tiyi pamalo otalika 500–900 m.

13. Kuyerekezera ndi tiyi wina wobiriwira wa Chongqing ndi Sichuan:

• Yǒngchuān Xiùyá (永川秀芽, Yǒngchuān Xiùyá): Chongqing. Mawonekedwe a lathyathyathya, wokhotakhota, fungo la mcheste wobiriwira. Ndiodziwika bwino komanso wotsika mtengo. Xiāngshān — ali ndi mbiri yozama kwambiri (Tang vs zaka za zana la 20) ndi mawonekedwe “owongoka” kwambiri (紧秀匀直).

• Méngdǐng Gānlù (蒙顶甘露, Méngdǐng Gānlù): Sichuan. Mmodzi mwa tiyi wakale kwambiri ku China (nambala wani ya Tang, malinga ndi Lǐ Zhào: “蒙顶石花，号为第一”). Mawonekedwe — kukhotakhota kozungulira; fungo — “mame okoma” (甘露), ndi maluwa owonekera. Xiāngshān — ulusi wowongoka, fungo la mcheste kuchokera ku “kuphulika kwa moto.” Onsewa ndi gòngchá a Tang ochokera kudera limodzi (Sichuan-Chongqing), koma kuchokera kumadera osiyana: Méngdǐng — 1000+ m, sub-tropiki yachinyezi; Xiāngshān — 500–900 m, nyengo yam’mipata. Méngdǐng — ndiwodziwika kwambiri; Xiāngshān — ndiwosowa, koma ali ndi terroir yapadera ya “m’mipata.”

• Zhúyèqīng (竹叶青, Zhúyèqīng): Sichuan, Éméi Shān. Lathyathyathya, lophikidwa. Wosakhwima, fungo la “bamboo lobiriwira.” Xiāngshān — ndiwothina kwambiri komanso “wa mcheste” chifukwa cha “kuphulika kwa moto.”

Pomaliza:

Xiāngshān Gòngchá ndi tiyi wochokera ku “Khomo la ma Genge Atatu”: minda yake imayang’ana ku miyala ya Qútáng Xiá, yojambulidwa pa ndalama ya 10 yuan, mbiri yake imayamba ndi gòngchá wa Tang wotchedwa “Mvula yonunkhira ya Kuízhōu,” ndipo oyandikana naye ndi linga la White Emperor, pamene Liú Bèi anapereka wolowa m’malo, ndi gombe, pomwe Du Fu analemba ndakatulo 400. Atatayika pankhondo za zaka za zana la 20 ndi kubweretsedwanso mu 1991, Xiāngshān wabwerera ndi teknoloje ya magwiridwe 28 ndi “kuphulika kwa moto” — kukantha kwa masekondi atatu pa 110 °C komwe kumasintha tiyi wobiriwira wamba kukhala symphony ya mcheste. Phikani pa 85 °C mu gaiwan yoyera — ndipo lolani fungo la Phiri Lonunkhira likuuzani za olemba ndakatulo, mafumu, ndi mtsinje waukulu, womwe ukuyenda m’munsi mwa minda ya tiyi kwa zaka 1,300.
