云南滇红

云南红茶简称滇红，属红茶类;

由汉族茶农创制于民国年间;

产于云南省南部与西南部的临沧、

保山、凤庆、西双版纳、德宏等地。

以大叶种红碎茶拼配形成，定型产品有叶茶、碎茶、片茶、末茶4类11个花色。

滇红特点：

其外形各有特定规格，

身骨重实，色泽调匀，

冲泡后汤色红鲜明亮，

金圈突出，香气鲜爽，

滋味浓强，富有刺激性，

叶底红匀鲜亮，加牛奶仍有较强茶味，

呈棕色、粉红或姜黄鲜亮，以浓、强、鲜为其特色。

滇红制作工序：

制作采用优良的云南大叶种茶树鲜叶，先经萎凋、揉捻或揉切、发酵、烘烤等工序制成成品茶。

产地优越：

云南六山五水构成山岭纵横，

河谷渊深，错综复杂的地形地貌，

这种帚形地系、水系，

使云南西北高东南低，

即可抵挡西北大陆性气候的入侵，

又可接受来自印度洋、

太平洋温暖季风，

随地形产生温度水平、垂直的变化，

形成独特的高原气候和山地气候。

茶区山峦起伏，云雾缭绕，

溪涧穿织，雨量充沛，土壤肥沃，多红黄壤土，腐殖质丰富，具有得天独厚的茶叶生产的自然条件。

滇红价值功效：

利尿功效：在红茶中的咖啡碱和芳香物质联合作用下，可增加肾脏的血流量，提高肾小球过滤率，扩张肾微血管，并抑制肾小管对水的再吸收，于是促成尿量增加。如此有利于排除体内的乳酸、尿酸(与痛风有关)、过多的盐分(与高血压有关)、有害物等，以及缓和心脏病或肾炎造成的水肿。

消炎杀菌功效：红茶中的多酚类化合物具有消炎的效果，再经由实验发现滇红茶功效与作用，儿茶素类能与单细胞的细菌结合，使蛋白质凝固沉淀，藉此抑制和消灭病原菌。所以细菌性喇疾及食物中毒患者喝红茶颇有益，民间也常用浓茶涂伤口、褥疮和香港脚。

解毒功效：据实验证明，红茶中的茶多碱能吸附重金属和生物碱，并沉淀分解，这对饮水和食品受到工业污染的现代人而言，不啻是一项福音。

提神消疲功效：经由医学实验发现，红茶中的咖啡碱藉由刺激大脑皮质来兴奋神经中枢，促成提神、思考力集中，进而使思维反应更形敏锐，记忆力增强;它也对血管系统和心脏具兴奋作用，强化心搏，从而加快血液循环以利新陈代谢，同时又促进发汗和利尿，由此双管齐下加速排泄乳酸(使肌肉感觉疲劳的物质)及其他体内老废物质，达到消除疲劳的效果。

生津清热功效：夏天饮红茶能止渴消暑，是因为茶中的多酚类、醣类、氨基酸、果胶等与口涎产生化学反应，且刺激唾液分泌，导致口腔觉得滋润，并且产生清凉感;同时咖啡碱控制下视丘的体温中枢，调节体温，它也刺激肾脏以促进热量和污物的排泄，维持体内的生理平衡。

此外，滇红茶还具有防龋、健胃整肠助消化、延缓老化、降血糖、降血压、降血脂、抗癌、抗辐射的功能。茶中的咖啡碱具有提神作用，能在运动进行中促成身体先燃烧脂肪供应热能而保留肝醋

Created by Han tea farmers in the Republic of China;

Produced in Lincang, in southern and southwestern Yunnan Province,

Baoshan, Fengqing, Xishuangbanna, Dehong and other places.

It is formed by blending large-leaf black broken tea, and the final product has 11 colors in four categories: leaf tea, broken tea, sliced tea, and powdered tea.

Dianhong features:

Its shape has specific specifications,

The body is heavy and the color is evenly mixed,

After brewing, the color of the soup is bright and red,

The golden circle is prominent and the aroma is fresh,

The taste is strong and irritating,

The bottom of the leaf is red and bright, and there is still a strong tea flavor with milk.

It is bright brown, pink or turmeric, with strong, strong and fresh characteristics.

Dianhong production process:

The production adopts the excellent fresh leaves of Yunnan large-leaf tea trees, which are first withered, twisted or cut, fermented, roasted and other processes to make finished tea.

Superior origin:

Yunnan’s six mountains and five rivers constitute mountains and ridges.

The river valley is deep and the intricate topography and landforms,

This kind of broom-shaped ground system, water system,

Make Yunnan higher in the northwest and lower in the southeast,

Can withstand the invasion of the northwestern continental climate,

It is also acceptable to come from the Indian Ocean,

Pacific warm monsoon,

The temperature changes horizontally and vertically with the terrain,

Form a unique plateau climate and mountain climate.

The tea area has undulating hills and clouds,

The stream is woven through, with abundant rainfall, fertile soil, rich in red and yellow loam, rich in humus, and has unique natural conditions for tea production.

Dianhong Value and Efficacy:

Diuretic effect: under the combined action of caffeine and aromatic substances in black tea, it can increase the blood flow of the kidneys, increase the glomerular filtration rate, expand the renal capillaries, and inhibit the reabsorption of water by the renal tubules, thus contributing to an increase in urine output. This helps to eliminate lactic acid, uric acid (related to gout), excessive salt (related to high blood pressure), harmful substances, etc., and alleviate edema caused by heart disease or nephritis.

Anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial effects: The polyphenolic compounds in black tea have anti-inflammatory effects. It was discovered through experiments that the catechins can bind to single-cell bacteria to coagulate and precipitate proteins, thereby inhibiting and eliminating pathogenic bacteria. Therefore, it is beneficial for patients with bacterial diseases and food poisoning to drink black tea. The folks also use strong tea to coat wounds, bedsores and Hong Kong feet.

Detoxification effect: According to experiments, the theophylline in black tea can adsorb heavy metals and alkaloids, and precipitate and decompose. This is a boon for modern people whose drinking water and food are industrially polluted.

Refreshing and relieving fatigue: Through medical experiments, it has been found that the caffeine in black tea stimulates the nerve center by stimulating the cerebral cortex, which promotes refreshment and concentration of thinking, which in turn makes the thinking reaction more acute and memory enhancement; it also has an effect on the vascular system and the heart. The excitatory effect strengthens the heartbeat, thereby accelerating blood circulation to facilitate metabolism, and at the same time promoting sweating and diuresis, thereby accelerating the excretion of lactic acid (a substance that makes muscles feel fatigued) and other old waste substances in the body to eliminate fatigue.

Efficacy of promoting body fluid and clearing heat: drinking black tea in summer can quench thirst and relieve heat, because the polyphenols, carbohydrates, amino acids, pectin, etc. in the tea chemically react with salivation and stimulate saliva secretion, causing the mouth to feel moisturized and produce a cooling sensation At the same time, caffeine controls the body temperature center of the hypothalamus and regulates body temperature. It also stimulates the kidneys to promote the excretion of heat and dirt and maintain the physiological balance in the body.

In addition, Yunnan black tea also has the functions of preventing caries, strengthening the stomach and intestines, helping digestion, delaying aging, lowering blood sugar, lowering blood pressure, lowering blood lipids, anti-cancer, and anti-radiation. The caffeine in tea has a refreshing effect, which can promote the body to burn fat and supply heat energy while retaining liver vinegar during exercise.
