Description

Tour the tea fields at a century-old, family-run garden near Taipei and meet its farmers. Taste local teas, make tea jelly to take home, and receive professional drone photos and video.
Begin your experience with a guided tour through the tea fields of a local Taiwanese tea farm. Visit Zhufeng Tea Leisure Farm (竹峰茗茶休閒農場), a century-old, family-run tea garden in Luzhu District, Taoyuan. Walk among the tea plants, explore the growing environment firsthand, and learn how factors such as soil, climate, elevation, and farming methods influence the flavor and character of Taiwanese tea. Across four generations, the family has preserved traditional tea-growing knowledge while embracing sustainable farming and educational experiences.

This experience offers a rare opportunity for international visitors to meet local tea farmers and connect directly with the people behind Taiwan’s tea culture. While not a large-scale luxury tea estate, Zhufeng Tea Leisure Farm produces exceptionally high-quality teas that many guests will consider among the most memorable teas they have ever tasted.

Next, enjoy a guided tasting of carefully selected local teas. Learn how to appreciate different aromas, flavors, textures, and processing methods while discovering what makes Taiwanese tea unique. From cultivation to preparation, gain a deeper understanding of the traditions and skills passed down through generations.

After the tasting, take part in a hands-on tea jelly-making activity. Create your own refreshing dessert using tea-inspired flavors and take home a unique souvenir made from your own experience.

Throughout the visit, a drone photo and video package will capture the beauty of the tea fields, the farming environment, and your personal journey. Professionally filmed memories will be delivered after the experience, allowing you to remember not only the scenery, but also the people and stories that make Taiwanese tea culture special.
