苏州碧螺春炒制工艺获全国特等奖-茶礼仪网

本报讯（记者　周伟蔚）12日，吴中区传来好消息，在“都匀毛尖杯”全国手工制茶大赛中，东山御封茶厂的严介龙获得手工卷曲型绿茶特等奖。这是全国绿茶炒制工艺领域中分量最重的奖项之一，也是江苏省首次获得该奖。

首次参赛，严介龙充分展示了苏州碧螺春炒制工艺的最高水平。严介龙介绍，大赛在贵州省都匀市举行，很多比赛细节其实并不利于苏州选手发挥，例如这次试用的是电炒锅，而在吴中区大部分碧螺春茶厂，炒茶师傅依然在沿用最传统的柴火锅，两者对于火候的掌握区别很大。严介龙提到一个细节，最后杀青阶段，他将茶叶向上抛了足有80公分，满锅热气沸腾，茶叶噼里啪啦作响，如此纯熟的技艺得到所有评委一致赞赏：“这才是碧螺春炒制最正宗的工艺。”

“都匀毛尖杯”全国手工制茶大赛分为手工卷曲型绿茶、手工扁型绿茶、手工青茶、手工红条茶四种，来自全国16个省区183名制茶高手参与了本次大赛。其中在手工卷曲型绿茶评比环节，共有63名高手参赛，吴中区西山碧螺春茶厂的夏耀明同时获得该项金奖。

日本最新研究：喝绿茶无法预防乳腺癌

绿茶以“抗氧化性”的优势一直被女性白领推崇为“抗乳腺癌”的最佳办公室饮品，此外，先前的很多研究都提倡多喝“热饮”，因为热饮能提高人类以及动物体内细胞的“抵抗能力”并有效地与癌症做斗争。

然而，最新的一项面向5万多女性、为期5年的实验表明，喝绿茶与抗击乳腺癌竟毫无关系。

　　来自东京的癌症专家Motoki Iwasaki表示，这个“以广泛人类为对象”的实验规模是巨大的，实验对象从每周喝1杯茶到每天喝10杯茶都进入到了我们调查的方位。由于调查者的每日 “摄入的绿茶量”不一样，实验的结果还不能100%的说明问题，但是饮用绿茶和抵抗乳腺癌不存在关系是铁定的事实了。

　　在谈到实验的时候，癌症专家Motoki Iwasaki赞美了实验在设计上的“前瞻性”，他说：“实验所需要的数据在妇女们的诊断证明(乳腺癌)出来之前就已经收集完毕，一定程度上增加了实验的真实性。”从而得出结论，喝绿茶与患乳腺癌的风险无关系。

It may be packed with anti-oxidants but green tea does not protect against breast cancer, according to an extensive study. Previous research on both animals and human cells had suggested the hot drink could boost the body's defenses against the cancer。

　　However, the latest analysis looking at 54,000 women found no association between drinking green tea and breast cancer risk. A five year study found no link between drinking green tea and reducing a person's risk of breast cancer

　　Dr Motoki Iwasaki, from the National Cancer Center, Tokyo, worked with a team of researchers to carry out the study. He said: 'Results from human studies have been inconclusive. Our large-scale, population-based prospective cohort study is one of the first to include a wide range of tea intakes; women who drank green tea less than 1 cup per week to those who drank 10 or more cups per day. It found no overall association between green tea intake and the risk of breast cancer"

　　Speaking about the survey, Dr Iwasaki said, 'The other major strength of the present study was its prospective design, in which information was collected before the subsequent diagnosis of breast cancer, thereby avoiding the exposure recall bias inherent to case-control studies. 'Drinking green tea as a beverage is unlikely to reduce the risk of breast cancer regardless of green tea type and number of cups'。
