What is the difference between Yunnan Pu'er tea and Yunnan black tea?

　　Pu'er tea (also known as “Dianqing tea”) and Dianhong are well-known teas in Yunnan Province. The raw materials of both are produced from Yunnan large-leaf tea; the soup color of Pu'er tea is brown and red Bright, the soup color of Dian black tea is red and bright after brewing.

In fact, there is an essential difference between Pu'er tea and Yunnan black tea.

　　The specific differences between Pu'er tea and Dianhong are as follows:

In terms of production process, Yunnan black tea is first fermented tea, and the fermentation stops after production; while Pu'er tea is post-fermented tea, which will be naturally fermented during storage, even if it is artificially fermented ripe tea, it will continue to ferment. Therefore, Pu'er tea is divided into raw tea and ripe tea, while Yunnan black tea does not.
