摘要与插图

普洱茶产品制作可上溯至东汉时期，贸易始于唐，闻名于明，极盛于清。在这充满传奇的历史传承之中，犹如人生真味，或酸，或甜、或苦、或涩，拥有实的品质，动的故事，厚的底色，越陈越香。
    1，普洱两字的含义
“普洱”为哈尼族语言。“普洱”一直用作地名，更早为思茅市普洱县（现为宁洱县），现为云南省州府地域名普洱市（原思茅市）。普洱茶含义中虽有普洱之地产的茶，但主要产自西双版纳境内。
“普洱”为哈尼族语言。“普洱”一直用作地名，更早为思茅市普洱县（现为宁洱县），现为云南省州府地域名普洱市（原思茅市）。普洱茶含义中虽有普洱之地产的茶，但主要产自西双版纳境内。元朝有一地域名叫“步日部”，后转音为汉字，就成了“普耳”。“普洱府”也逐渐由“步日部”改名，没有固定名称的云南茶叶，也逐渐与普洱府连成一体，有了普茶一名。《滇略》记载：“士庶所用，皆普茶也。蒸而成团。”
普茶以醇厚浓酽的品质逐渐成为西藏、西康、新疆等地区以肉食为主少数民族食品，从此名震国内外，直到明朝末年，才改名为普洱茶。方中通《物理小知识》（1664年）记载：“普洱茶蒸之成团，西蕃市之。”凡是云南境内，由乔木茶菁制造的茶品，一律成为普洱茶。
    2，现代普洱茶的定义
根据国家标准GB/T22111-2008《地理标志产品·普洱茶》：普洱茶是以地理标志保护范围内的云南大叶种晒青茶为原料，并在地理标志保护范围内采用特定的加工工艺生产，具有品质特征的茶叶。普洱茶分为普洱茶（生茶）和普洱茶（熟茶）两大类型。
据此，中国普洱茶概念有三个要点：
①云南地理标志保护范围内生产的云南大叶种原料；
②云南地理标志保护范围内加工的晒青毛茶；
③云南地理标志保护范围内特定加工工艺制作的茶。
满足上述三个条件才能叫普洱茶。这个概念包括生茶、通过人工发酵的熟茶、陈化老茶。根据国标的定义，在云南加工完的毛茶，运到广州等地再做成紧压茶的就不能叫普洱茶了。
  3，普洱茶的基本特点
（1）地理标志：普洱茶的地理标志区域为云南省普洱市、西双版纳、临沧市、大理州、保山市、德宏州、楚雄州、红河州、玉溪市、文山州等11个州（市）、75个县（市、区）、639个乡（街道办事处）现辖行政区域。

（2）树种优势：云南自然环境有利于茶树生长，茶树资源丰富，具有多种品种。现在做普洱茶原料为“云南大叶种”。大叶种茶成为普洱茶原料主要的品种特性。它分为乔木和小乔木，两种茶树都生命力较强、早期发芽、采叶期间较长。茶叶中的茶叶肥壮，茶多酚、儿茶素、咖啡因、茶氨酸等内涵成分很丰富。
（3）特殊工艺：一是拼配技术，即将不同产地、不同级别、不同年限的茶叶进行拼配，组合成符合预定目标的普洱产品；二是采用人工发酵技术，即将晒青毛茶洒水堆积，在湿热作用和微生物作用的共同促进下促使叶内多酚化合物快速转化，形成色泽褐红、汤色红浓、醇厚陈香等品质特征。
（4）绿色食品：云南因地处祖国西南边陲，一方面工业产业落后，在很多茶区基本上没有一家化工企业，另一方面得益于的地理气候条件和良好的生态环境，的立体海拔气候，成就了云南茶区无污染、的绿色环境。
（5）越陈越香：“越陈越香”是普洱茶的显著特点，“香陈九畹芳兰气，品尽千年普洱情。”普洱茶是“可入口的古董”，无论生茶或者熟茶，普洱
