We select the most promising tea leaves from individual farms that yield the highest quality leaf for our roasters.
These leaves are limited in supply. Taiwan's tea farms are in a class of their own. But don't worry if you miss out, our enthusiasm and confidence will always make sure there will be superb teas available for you during the next seasonal cycle.
With our 25 year old aged oolong tea, we're supporting a magnificent effort by local zoologists, in partnership with indigenous tribes of Taiwan, to reintroduce the Clouded Leopard into its natural habitat.
Explore our newest teas in the Taihoku Tea range. All our teas are responsibly sourced from tea plantations in Taiwan, using traditional tea processing and roasting methods.

"I am from India. I never imagined substituting our Indian teas for anything else. But I like to experiment. I bought a small bag of Ruby Red and began cooking my cha. What it gave up on the body of the tea compared to an Assam, it replaced with an incredible subtle flavour that mixed beautifully with the warm milk and spices."
"I consider myself a bit of a tea connoisseur. I've sipped teas on farms in more than 10 countries. For me, what's special about Taihoku tea is their unique roasting process."
"I snuck some Red Oolong into my mother's morning lemon tea. At first she didn't notice the difference from the regular tea we use. On the second cup she called me into her bedroom and asked me, smiling, what had happened to the tea overnight. The smile was magical, and the tea made that happen."
To highlight the beauty and diversity of Taiwan's native fauna, the Taihoku Tea Signature Series features native Taiwan animal prints on all of its packaging. Animals include the Formosan Blue Magpie (Taiwan's national bird), as well as the Sambar Deer, Black Bear, Macaque, Leopard Cat, and the elusive Clouded Leopard.
