【About Taiwanese Tea】
Taiwanese tea plays an important part in the world’s tea culture and industry. During the ages when tea trading was thriving, Taiwanese tea was known as “Formosa Tea.” Using this name, we shared our tea with the world. Formosa Black Tea and Formosa Oolong Tea were famous during that period of time.
The Tea Industry in Taiwan is a 400 year old season industry, since the 17th century. Beginning from the exportation era to the culture of “Bubble Tea” from recent years, Taiwan has consistently been ever present in cultural exchanges around the world .
