红茶是中国茶文化中的主要茶品之一。 明朝时产于福建武夷山的正山小种为红茶鼻祖，因发酵后可以保存很长时间，1610年荷兰人透过印度尼西亚殖民地将小种红茶茶砖运往欧洲，开始了西方红茶文化。红茶共通的特性是有熟成果实的甜香，略带有蔗糖、麦芽糖、蜂蜜的气息，颜色瑰丽如葡萄酒红，滋味又相较于绿茶来的饱满厚实，甜、顺、香成为其独特风味。

Black tea is one of the main types of tea in Chinese tea culture. Originating in Ming Dynasty from Zhengshan Xiaozhong tea in Wuyi Mountain, Fujian Province, black tea is renowned for its ability to be fermented and preserved for long periods. In 1610, Dutch merchants transported Zhengshan Xiaozhong tea bricks through their colonies in Indonesia to Europe, initiating Western black tea culture. Common characteristics of black tea include a sweet aroma resembling matured fruits, with hints of cane sugar, maltose, and honey. Its vivid red color akin to that of wine and its full-bodied, smooth taste distinguish it from green tea, making it uniquely sweet, mellow, and aromatic.
