普洱茶文化探秘：从银生古城到世界舞台的千年茶韵
普洱茶作为中国茶文化的瑰宝，其历史可追溯至三千多年前。唐代樊绰在《蛮书》中记载："茶出银生城界诸山，采无时，杂菽姜烹而饮之"，这可能是关于普洱茶最早的文献记载。
Pu'er tea, a gem of Chinese tea culture, dates back over 3,000 years. Tang Dynasty scholar Fan Chuo recorded in "The Book of Barbarians": "Tea comes from the mountains around Yinsheng City, harvested at any time, and drunk after being cooked with beans and ginger", which may be the earliest written record of Pu'er tea.
普洱茶的历史渊源
The Historical Origins of Pu'er Tea
银生城即现在的景东市，位于滇西南中部，是唐宋时期南诏大理国的军事重镇和经济文化中心。这里是茶树发源地之一，著名的茶马古道就起源于银生古城。
Yinsheng City, now Jingdong City, is located in central southwest Yunnan and was an important military stronghold and economic-cultural center of the Nanzhao and Dali Kingdoms during the Tang and Song dynasties. It is one of the origins of tea trees, and the famous Tea Horse Road originated from the ancient Yinsheng City.
普洱茶制作工艺独特：
1. 生茶：采摘→摊凉→杀青→揉捻→干燥→压制
2. 熟茶：在上述基础上增加渥堆发酵工序
The production process of Pu'er tea is unique:
1. Raw tea: picking → spreading → fixation → rolling → drying → pressing
2. Ripe tea: adding pile fermentation process on the above basis
