Fan Shenghua，59，is one of the inheritors（傳承人）of the Longjing tea roasting technique.His palms（手掌） tell you everything-they're thick，rough，and full of calluses（手繭）；a reminder of more than 40 years of hard work.
   "You have to touch the leaves with your hands to see how much water should be removed，" Fan said. "If too much is removed，the leaves will break into pieces；if not enough is removed，the tea will taste bitter（苦澀的）."
   This traditional technique dates back to the Ming and Qing dynasties.It not only ensures（保證）the quality of the tea，but is also an important part of Chinese tea culture. "Longjing tea leaves are famous for their color，taste and shape.Only by hand can we make the best of them.It's like making a work of art，" Fan said.
   These days，however，             . "It's easier，but the quality is not as good，" Fan said. "Machine-made tea floats（漂浮）longer in water and tastes bitter."
   In March this year，when President Xi Jinping visited Hangzhou，he watched Fan roast tea leaves.Fan changed the strength and movement of his hands as he felt the tea leaves roast.Xi later said， "The things made by two palms cannot be replaced by modern technology."
   Fan is now taking apprentices（學(xué)徒）.His son，a 27-year-old college graduate，is one of them. "It's a tradition.We need to pass it down，" said the father.
