Some of life’s best conversations happen over a cup of tea.

Whether you’re catching up with friends, celebrating a special occasion, or simply taking a moment to slow down, tea has a way of bringing people together.

For our family, tea has always been about more than what’s in the cup - it’s about creating moments to connect, share stories, and enjoy each other’s company.

Here’s to slowing down and savoring those moments, one cup at a time. 🍃

Most people know tea by its type - green, oolong, black, or white.

Fewer people know that tea also has cultivars.

One of the most important cultivars in Taiwan is Qingxin (青心), prized for its floral character, sweetness, and refined complexity.

It’s also one of the cultivars grown in our family tea gardens in Nantou, Taiwan.

Swipe through to discover why Qingxin has become one of Taiwan’s most celebrated tea cultivars. 🍃

🍃 Every cup of oolong begins with a leaf.

From careful harvesting to rolling, oxidation, and roasting, each step plays a role in shaping the final flavor and aroma.

It’s a process that combines nature, craftsmanship, and generations of experience.

For nearly 40 years, our family has cultivated and crafted tea in the mountains of Nantou, Taiwan.

Why does elevation matter when it comes to tea?

In Nantou, Taiwan, cooler temperatures and frequent mountain mist slow the growth of the tea leaves, creating ideal conditions for high mountain tea.

That slower growth allows the leaves to develop the floral aromas, natural sweetness, and smooth character that make Taiwan high mountain oolong so prized.

For nearly 40 years, our family has cultivated tea in these mountains and witnessed firsthand how the environment shapes every harvest.
