Fuyuan Tea Factory Introduction
Fuyuan Tea Factory has a history of over 90 years. During the Japanese colonial period, the founder began purchasing tea leaves from tea farmers and sold them to the refining factory in Dadaocheng for processing, which were then sold worldwide through foreign trading companies or Japanese merchants. The founder established the factory in 1949, transforming small-scale production into mass production, which continues to operate to this day, witnessing the rise and fall of Taiwanese tea. "Tea" deeply cultivates the spirit of Taiwanese people, allowing reflection on the need to take time to care for local culture while traversing the historic journey of southern sugar and northern tea. At Fuyuan, one can learn about Taiwanese tea and embark on a tea countryside journey, which includes "Ruby" black tea made from Taiwan Tea No. 18, Eastern Beauty tea produced using traditional methods, and sour calamondin tea, as well as the unique CTC (Cut-Tear-Curl) black tea not found elsewhere. Take the time to explore the local culture, learn about the tea production process, and understand Fuyuan Tea Factory's perseverance and resilience in the face of changing times. If you visit during the production season, you will be able to witness the tea production process and gain a deeper understanding of tea.
