Thirteen years ago, I came across organic and natural farming methods. Since then, I have started to understand the power of nature to heal people. A plant can quickly calm, relax, and heal our hearts, while the principle of connection is so simple and unadorned. I discovered by coincidence that tea tasting has a similar effect. Through the art of tea tasting, one can connect with nature, awaken the power of self-healing, and find simple inner strength.
Tea tasting has been a part of Chinese culture for 5,000 years and is an indispensable part of life. Among them, Taiwanese tea plays a leading role worldwide, as Taiwanese tea-making skills are also at their best. From seasonal tea harvesting to solar withering, indoor withering, initial rolling, stir fixation, and mass withering, each tea is manufactured under the meticulous care of the professional tea masters.
There are dozens of tea leaves, subdivided into different categories according to their aroma, roasting, and production area. Do you prefer a floral aroma, a little touch of fragrance, or the aroma of ripe fruit or brown sugar honey? The natural and unadulterated scent of tea leaves can be so varied and splendid, adding a spark of pleasure and excitement to our busy lives.
By upholding our original heart, we aim to pursue the natural method of tea farming. It is believed that only through the rich ecology of tea paired with magnanimity can an excellent tea be brewed. Through our eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, and mind, we can feel the connection between the aroma of tea and nature, and everyone can experience the relaxation and quiet beauty of the body, mind, and soul.
