Features: Yunnan is the birthplace of the tea plant and the homeland of world tea. Yunnan was once called "Pu Man Di," and the people of Yunnan are therefore referred to by some scholars as "Pu Man people" or "Pu people." In the early days of Chinese character origins, the character "Pu" was composed of the Dabao script's "tea" character and the pictograph of the Ailao people. One can imagine that in the eyes of ancient ancestors, the people of Yunnan were the noble "tea masters," offering tea in warm cups to guests in grand ancient ceremonies. In the folk culture of Yunnan's ethnic minorities, there is a full reverence for tea and totems. Today, Yunnan tea has become a globally beloved beverage. Especially since this century, Yunnan Pu-erh tea has once again sparked a wave of consumption, which is not only the result of the widespread recognition of its excellent quality but also the inheritance and promotion of the "Tang-style and Song-flavor" making techniques in its simple and elegant form. It is also the recognition of Chinese tea and tea culture by people around the world.
