白居易与白茶：唐代诗人的茶诗解码

Great Tang poet Bai Juyi mentioned 'white tea' multiple times. 'After Meal': 'After eating, a nap; rising, two bowls of tea' — describing white tea's mild, pleasant character and calming effect. 'Qin Tea': 'In the qin, only Lushui; in tea, old friend is Mengshan' — comparing good tea to old friends. Academic research: Tang Dynasty 'white tea' referred to naturally mutated pale-leaf tea plants — different from today's Fuding Dabai, but the cultural origin of the name 'white tea' traces back to Tang. Bai Juyi's fondness for white tea adds a 'literati elegance' cultural undertone.
