▲ A Little Knowledge About Alishan Tea
Most of the world's most renowned tea-producing regions are located near the Tropic of Cancer, and the Alishan tea region is no exception. Due to the cool, high-altitude climate and large temperature swings between day and night, Alishan tea trees grow slowly, resulting in soft buds and leaves with thick, firm flesh and a high pectin content. Irrigated with mountain spring water, the Alishan high-mountain oolong and Jinxuan teas produced here boast a refreshing aroma, rich flavor, and a mellow, durable flavor. They are a frequent winner in various Taiwanese tea competitions, earning them the international reputation of "Taiwan's Finest Tea."

▲ A Little Knowledge About Alishan Coffee
Alishan coffee, like African coffee, has a fruity aroma, South American coffee has a nutty, oily flavor, and Alishan coffee has the delicate fragrance of tea leaves and the rich notes of cypress. Many Taiwanese people are unaware of this, but Alishan coffee is already world-renowned in the coffee world. However, due to production and labor costs, Alishan coffee beans are quite expensive. This trip will allow you to visit coffee farms and learn about the Alishan coffee bean processing process, including the complex washing, sun-drying, and drying processes that produce each exquisite bean. Each visitor can also experience DIY coffee roasting and create their own custom ear-hanging coffee bags.
