Taiwan has the perfect tea-growing conditions. It has a tropical and subtropical climate with plenty of sunshine and rain, as well as rich soils that drain well. These conditions give tea from Taiwan its unique aroma and flavor.
Taiwan has grown tea for centuries which means many families have generational tea-making experience that is passed down. Taiwan also has research bodies dedicated to supporting the crafting and cultivation of tea, ensuring farmers are up-to-date with the latest methods. The nation’s tea culture and our Direct Trade relationships with them guarantee you’ll find only exceptional tea in this collection.
Each variety of tea has its own ideal brewing ritual, so we recommend following the individual product’s instructions for the best cup. However, a general guide on how to properly prepare Taiwanese teas is to use 1 teaspoon of loose leaf tea with 4 to 6 ounces of hot water and steep for your desired amount of time. Many of these teas can be brewed traditionally in a gaiwan or as part of a gongfu cha brewing ceremony.
Yes, all green teas come from the Camellia sinensis plant and naturally contain caffeine. The caffeine levels vary depending on the specific tea, but in general, green teas tend to have a medium amount of caffeine.
Taiwanese tea was originally brought in from mainland China which means they have a lot of similarities. However, due to the subtropical temperatures and unique climate of Taiwan, tea from the island is often smooth, light and sweet, while tea from China tends to be rich, full-bodied and earthy.
