What image comes to mind for you when thinking of teas?
Is it savoring a cup of black tea along with a three‑tiered stand for desserts like the English royalty? Or do you picture yourself kneeling on a mat, trying to maintain a straightened posture while swallowing down bitter matcha like Japanese samurais? Our Taiwanese teas offer a much more casual experience to enjoy tea at ease! Whether taking a leisure tea break in solitude or brewing a pot to share with friends over hearty conversations, here are our recommendations to help you pick the perfect blend for every occasion.
1. Refreshing vs. Luscious
Every tea has its unique aroma, flavor, and texture. However, they can roughly be divided into two types: refreshing and luscious. Refreshing teas often come with floral, fruity, honey, or milky scents; the taste leaves a feather‑light touch on your palette. On the other hand, luscious teas carry a roasted, sugary flavor that lingers in your mouth long after you drain the cup. What do you feel up to today?
2. When in Doubt, Go with Black
Picking the perfect tea for your occasion is like choosing the proper attire: when in doubt, go with black. As the dark color can easily pair with other accessories and fit in all scenarios, black tea goes well with most snacks and is widely accepted by people of different tastes. Our black tea contains peppermint and cinnamon notes, distinctive from your typical Earl Grey. You will not regret giving it a try.

3. Alpine Tea: The Undisputed Taiwanese Classic
After all, you are not here for the usual black or herbal teas overstocked in your local supermarket. You are here for the mysterious Oriental flavor Taiwanese teas have to offer. Alpine tea is a unique blend of Oolong tea from tea gardens at higher elevations. The terroir makes the tea rich in pectin, which removes the annoying astringent taste. A true Taiwanese classic that you shall not miss!
4. Organic Is the New Tasty
Our organic teas have impeccable flavors that are destined to impress. Enjoy the crisp scent of fruits and taro found in our Refreshing blend, or indulge in the taste of roasted barley from the Luscious blend. Since we applied no pesticide when growing these teas, you can make a conscientious choice that is not only tasty, but friendly to the environment and your health.
