Taiwan Oolong Tea — From the Hills of Nantou to the Clouds of Dayuling                                                                 臺灣烏龍茶的雙重風華:從南投丘陵到大禹嶺雲巔

目錄

Founded during the Qing Dynasty (since 1846), Geow Yong Tea Hong has carried on over 180 years of tea-making heritage. Every leaf is crafted with the spirit of “three roasts and three coolings”, a process symbolizing patience and precision. Behind each cup lies a mountain, a climate, and generations of dedication. Today, we invite you to explore two renowned origins of Taiwan’s Oolong tea — Mingjian, Nantou and Dayuling — to discover the transition of aroma from gentle hills to misty peaks.

自清咸豐年間創立以來,嶢陽茶行已傳承超過一百八十年製茶工藝,從茶園管理、手採製程到焙火火候,皆以「三焙三退火」精神追求穩定與細緻。嶢陽深知:每一杯好茶,背後都有一座山、一段氣候、一群人的專注。今天,讓我們走入兩個代表臺灣烏龍茶精華的茶鄉——南投名間大禹嶺,感受從丘陵到雲巔的香韻轉折。


Mingjian, Nantou — The Modern Hill Tea Region 南投名間鄉:現代化丘陵茶區的典範

Nestled among the hills of central Taiwan, Mingjian Township in Nantou County is one of the island’s most important Oolong tea regions. With altitudes ranging from 400 to 800 meters, the area enjoys mild temperatures, abundant rainfall, and fertile soil—perfect conditions for cultivating tea.

Local farmers primarily grow Qing Xin Oolong, known for its tender leaves and balanced flavor profile. Today, Mingjian’s tea industry has embraced modernized and mechanized production, from picking to roasting, ensuring uniform quality and consistency in every batch. The result is a clean, bright tea with a golden hue and a gentle floral aroma — a refreshing introduction to the world of Taiwan Oolong.

南投縣名間鄉是台灣烏龍茶的重要基地之一,海拔介於400至800公尺之間,氣候溫潤、雨量充沛,為茶樹提供了穩定成長的環境。當地茶園多種植青心烏龍等優良品種,芽葉柔嫩、內含物豐富。現今的名間茶區已廣泛採用現代化機械製茶流程,確保品質穩定、風味一致。茶湯金黃透亮,花香清新,入口俊美鮮爽、回甘柔和,是初次接觸臺灣茶者的絕佳選擇,也代表了嶢陽所追求的「現代台茶之美」。


Dayuling Oolong — The Pinnacle of High Mountain Tea 大禹嶺烏龍:雲霧之巔的極致珍品

Perched at over 2,000 meters above sea level, Dayuling straddles the border between Hualien and Nantou. It is one of the highest and rarest tea-growing regions in Taiwan. The year-round mist, sharp temperature contrasts, and abundant mountain air nurture leaves that grow slowly and accumulate rich flavor compounds.

The tea’s aroma is complex yet delicate—notes of orchid, fruit, and honey intertwine with a lingering mountain freshness. Each sip unfolds in layers: smooth at first, then deeply sweet, leaving a long and resonant finish. Due to its limited cultivation area and labor-intensive harvest, Dayuling Oolong is often described as “a gem among teas.”

位於花蓮與南投交界的大禹嶺,海拔超過2,000公尺,是全臺最高且最稀有的茶區之一。山嶺終年雲霧繚繞,晝夜溫差極大,使茶樹生長緩慢、內涵物質豐富。茶湯散發蘭花與蜜果的層次香氣,入口柔滑、回韻悠長,如同在雲間啜飲山氣。因產量稀少與採摘不易,大禹嶺烏龍被譽為「茶中極品,一葉難求」,象徵台灣高山茶的極致精神。


From Hills to Clouds — The Spirit of Taiwan Oolong 從丘陵到雲巔:臺灣烏龍的精神

Mingjian and Dayuling embody two facets of Taiwan’s Oolong legacy:

  • Mingjian reflects the modern precision and consistency of Taiwanese craftsmanship.
  • Dayuling represents the untouched purity and power of nature.

Together, they form the philosophy of Geow Yong Tea Hong — a harmony of balance and elevation. From the gentle fragrance of the hills to the deep resonance of the high mountains, every tea leaf tells the story of time, patience, and devotion.

南投名間與大禹嶺,一丘一嶺,展現臺灣烏龍的兩端精神:民間象徵現代製茶的穩定與清香;大禹嶺則代表自然極致的淬鍊與深韻。嶢陽以兩者為軸,融合「平衡」與「高度」,詮釋台灣茶的靈魂。每一壺茶,都是對土地與時間的敬禮。
