Daxi Old Tea Factory Introduction
Visit the Daxi Old Tea Factory and leisurely embark on a journey called "Tea Tasting Time." Built in 1926 by the Japanese, the Jiao板山 Factory is the predecessor of the Daxi Tea Factory, marking the beginning of a glorious history of tea production in Daxi, making it the "new noble of tea gold" at that time. However, a fire in 1956 nearly destroyed the factory. It wasn't until 2010 that Taiwan Sugar Corporation began reconstruction, bringing back the charm of tea that had been hidden for half a century, showcasing a blend of old and new to the world. The exterior of the Daxi Old Tea Factory is inspired by the tea factories in Darjeeling, India, while the interior space reflects a mix of Taiwanese and Japanese styles, rich in diverse cultures. Blue is the dominant color of the building; whether it's the window grilles, beams and columns, shaped shelves, walls, or artistic paintings, the understated blue tone complements the brick and cypress wood structure of the tea factory remarkably. Under this "Daxi Blue," the serene beauty washed by time and the antique tea-making equipment whisper of tea conversations in a tranquil Buddhist ambiance. Savoring tea aroma and culture, every corner of the tea factory enchants visitors. Stroll by the quiet pool and experience a moment of tranquility away from the city; gaze upon the Pu'er tea wall made of over a hundred tea bricks and sip the fragrant essence of time; relax in the reading area where time doesn’t matter in the world of literature; sit with friends in the tea library to enjoy tea and chat about daily life; and don't forget to express yourself in the graffiti book, leaving a beautiful note on this little trip. Adhering to nature is the unwavering principle of operation at the Daxi Old Tea Factory, with no pesticides added during the production process, promoting food safety and organic practices. All products pass SGS certification. Monthly reservations are available for a buffet that features 15 local seasonal dishes accompanied by tea fragrance, offering pure and refreshing flavors, allowing travelers to indulge their taste buds in the elegance of tea. There are also daily set menus available that provide a taste of simplistic yet unforgettable food and drink culture.
