Taiwan tea regions

Taiwan has a many regions, where tea is growing. There is the list of them.

History of Tea in Taiwan

Two wild, indigenous tea subspecies, Taiwan Mountain Tea and Red Sprout Mountain Tea, were discovered in Taiwan as early as the 17th century. However, they had little economic value and were not widely used due to their bitter taste and thin, brittle leaves.

Authentic Taste of Milk Oolong from Taiwan

Sometimes we get questions from our customers why Taiwanese milk oolong is not as “milky” as the tea they used to buy.

To answer this question, let's consider the technologies by which milk oolong can be produced in the order of "legitimacy" to be called true milk oolong.

How many calories are there in a cup of tea

Tea without adding anything, has slight, but not zero calories. Cup of brewed black tea has about 2 calories. The calories come mostly from trace amounts of carbohydrates in the tea leaf. The same is true for most herbal teas.

Sometimes when brewing tea, you can notice small oily spots floating on the surface of the brewed tea. This can happen when brewing tea which has been roasted, for example, in a large pan or wok.

The highest tea plantations in the world are located in Dayuling, and you can buy Dayuling oolong tea which grows at the altitude more than 2600 meters in our shop.
