Daxi Old Tea Factory Introduction
Visit the Daxi Old Tea Factory and embark on a leisurely journey called "Tea Tasting Time." Established in 1926 by the Japanese, the Jiao Ban Mountain Factory was the predecessor to the Daxi Tea Factory, marking the beginning of a glorious history of tea production in Daxi, which was once considered the "new nobility of tea." However, a fire in 1956 almost completely destroyed the tea factory. Since 2010, Taiwan Agricultural and Forestry Co., Ltd. has been working on its reconstruction, bringing back the long-lost essence of tea in a blend of old and new. The exterior of the Daxi Old Tea Factory is modeled after an Indian Darjeeling tea factory, while the interior reflects a blend of Taiwanese and Japanese elements, showcasing a rich multicultural atmosphere. The dominant color of the building is blue, which harmonizes with the window grilles, beams, sculptural shelves, walls, and artworks. This understated blue tone fits beautifully with the brick-and-timber structure of the tea factory, creating a tranquil aesthetic under the "Daxi Blue," where the serene beauty of time and the antique tea-making equipment whisper tales of tea culture. Savor the aroma of tea and the essence of culture; every corner of the tea factory captivates visitors. Stroll by the quiet pond and experience a moment of tranquility away from the city; marvel at the Pu-erh tea wall stacked with over a hundred tea bricks and sip the fragrant taste of time; relax in the reading area and lose track of time in the world of literature; sit with friends in the tea book house, enjoying tea and sharing everyday stories; and don’t forget to let your creativity flow in the doodle book, leaving a beautiful note for this small journey. Adhering to nature is the unchanging operating principle of the Daxi Old Tea Factory, with no pesticides used in the production process. It promotes safe and organic food, and all products pass SGS quality inspections. Reservations are available monthly for a casual buffet, featuring 15 seasonal local dishes enhanced with tea aroma, offering a pure and refreshing taste that allows travelers to enjoy the elegance of tea. There is also a daily regular set menu that showcases a simple yet unforgettable food and drink culture.
