If any extra quantity becomes available, we’ll release it for everyone! For those who missed out, we still have LongFengXia spring tea harvested on May 18 available in store. The tea
Dear tea lovers, the harvest for the 2023 spring tea is complete. We finished our sourcing on May 29th, with our highest-elevation selections coming from Cuiluan North Line and Hehuanshan Meifeng. We couldn’t find anything up to our standards in HuaGung, Dayuling, or Biluxi, so we decided not to purchase from those areas. Those of
You read that right—high mountain areas also harvest summer tea, known as Er-Shui tea! Many people think high mountain teas are only harvested in the spring and winter, but Er-Shui summer tea is also harvested, and in quite significant quantities! /*! elementor – v3.13.3 – 28-05-2023 */ .elementor-widget-image{text-align:center}.elementor-widget-image a{display:inline-block}.elementor-widget-image a img[src$=”.svg”]{width:48px}.elementor-widget-image img{vertical-align:middle;display:inline-block} This year has
The 2023 drought may be the biggest disaster in Taiwan’s tea history. A tea farmer told our store manager that his spring tea had a “zero harvest,” meaning six months of labor yielded nothing, plus out-of-pocket fertilizer costs. But he wasn’t even the most unfortunate one. What is the worst-case scenario? The answer is dead
Good evening, tea lovers! The Lishan Cuiluan North Line Tea (Harvested on May 27) is now sold out. Thank you all so much! For those who missed out, we still have the Cuiluan North Line harvested on May 29 available. It’s equally packed with rich flavor and offers an even higher level of tea quality.
The ecology of Taiwan’s tea regions is getting better! Visiting the tea farms over the past few years, I’ve noticed more and more wild animals—wild boars, Reeves’s muntjacs, rabbits, Swinhoe’s pheasants, and monkeys—many of which are quite used to humans. Wild boars are the most common in the tea regions because they love eating the
Tea tree stumping (pruning for dwarfing) is a vital part of tea plantation management and a key indicator for tea merchants to assess how well a farm is maintained. Regular pruning and dwarfing do wonders for improving quality! When buying tea, our store manager always looks for plantations where the bushes are kept short and
I know many of you already know this, but if even one person doesn’t, then today’s casual chat is totally worth it~😊 ================ How many times a year can Taiwanese tea be harvested? Low-altitude tea can be harvested 6 to 8 times, while standard harvests include spring (2 times), summer, autumn, winter, and Winter Sprout
As Typhoon Doksuri approaches, high-mountain fruit farmers have been on edge these past few days, terrified that a single mishap could wipe out a whole year’s worth of hard work. Tea farmers, by contrast, remain remarkably calm and relaxed. 😊 ================ Part of the reason is that tea plants are much more resilient against strong
#SteamedRice #RiceControversy #StirFry Pardon me for lacking fresh content the past couple of days, just jumping on the trending bandwagon. 😂😂😂 It’s pretty wild how a situation like this ended up being a lose-lose for everyone. Honestly, I don’t think the students did much wrong. Eating an average of 1.2 bowls of rice per person
Can’t seem to find a high mountain tea that satisfies you? Does the tea you buy taste bitter and astringent? Have you never tried authentic Taiwanese high mountain tea with a rich, full-bodied texture and natural pectin?

The high mountain tea “midterm exam”—the autumn tea season has officially begun! True to tradition, the autumn harvest kicks off in Lishan. Lishan entered its peak harvest period on July 30th, and if the weather holds up, it’s expected to run through mid-August. For our newcomers, the shop manager is answering a few common questions
Hearing that the Cuifeng autumn tea harvest had started, I rushed up the mountain early this morning, only to find the road blocked right at the intersection😵💫😵💫😵💫. The blockage is located just above the tea growing area (Yongyu Tea Factory). If any industry peers are planning to purchase autumn tea, remember to take the Lixing
This year’s Lishan autumn tea started harvesting in late July, entering peak harvest in early August. Current observations show “average” yield and “average” tea leaf quality—a pretty standard, run-of-the-mill autumn tea. 🫤🫤 ================ Last year, our store manager gave the Lishan autumn tea a super high score of 85, but for 2023 we can only
