Introduction
Alishan Shizhuo has its own unique advantages for growing good tea. The altitude of the tea area is between 1200 and 1700 meters. The temperature difference is about 10 degrees, with sufficient relative humidity. In summer, the highest temperature is seldom over 25 degrees. Tea leaves do not age due to growing too fast so the tea tastes mellow and not bitter.
Lin Yuan Tea Factory not only manages the tea farm, but also harvests, refines, bakes, and sells tea on its own. Lin Liang-Chih grows tea through natural farming. Covering the tea under sod culture, he maintains the best growing condition for the tea trees, reducing pests and increasing production. He was also the first local farmer to introduce traceability, pesticide-free testing, etc. to ensure the quality of tea. His wife Guo Chun-mei leads home economics courses, promoting creative tea meals and tea dishes and mobilizing the trend. She also began holding guided tours to tea farms and other activities. In recent years, the Farm provides more diverse experience activities, including tea picking, tea rolling, tea tasting, and more.
Features of Agricultural Tourism
Tea
The main tea products produced by Linyuan Tea include Alishan Zhulu Tea, High Mountain Oolong Tea, Jinxuan Tea, Honey Fragrant Black Tea, etc. There are also natural agricultural teas that are completely free of chemicals and are completely integrated with the local ecology. The annual output of this tea is only 10% of common tea. There is the private brand “Yujiangcha”, which is roasted from carefully selected spring and winter high-quality tea leaves. To attract the younger generation, creative cultural designs and illustration such as mountain sparrow, blue-bellied pheasant, and sansho fish are used to represent the 3 kinds of tea, packed in small packages convenient for brewing.
Guo Chunmei said that tea culture cannot be merely buying and drinking tea. Since the early days, she combined tea with art and encouraged teachers to bring students to tea gardens to pick tea and hold tea banquets. Now this experience is further spread to the general public. The ancient home of the Lin Family, the closed Lin Yuan Villa, held tea banquets, tea kneading, tea dyeing, floral design and other activities, so that more people can understand the profound background of tea. When you know how to drink tea, you learn more about life.
