Tea Tasting 02/26 - 02/28

Embrace a year of great health and spiritual inspiration!
~ Enjoy 30 year-old Pomelo Tea ~

Pomelo tea originated from Taiwan’s Hakka traditional culture. Using the natural resources from their own gardens and farm lands, Hakkanese people fill the pomelo fruit with processed tea leaves to create this special well-being and healthy tea that is not being sold in the market.

Due to its complex manufacturing process, pomelo tea are usually used only as a natural healing remedy for cold, coughing, and upset stomachs. In Hakka culture, the tea is a great well-being tea, helpful for clearing away heat, phlegm, and toxic substances in the body, reducing cold and nausea.

Traditionally, pomelo tea are house-hold treasures, rarely available in the market. Since the unique taste and aroma of pomelo tea enhances as it ages, pomelo tea that is older than 10 years are considered extremely precious already. At the tea tasting this weekend, Fang Gourmet Tea will be glad to share with tea-lovers some 30 year-old pomelo tea! Don’t miss the opportunity!

芳茗軒品茶會 三十年珍品柚子茶
體驗保健養身, 滋潤身心的茶之旅

柚子茶源自於台灣客家的傳統文化，利用自家所種植的柚子和茶樹，將製作好的茶葉， 放到柚子裡面，而創造出風味獨具的柚子茶，主要在家中品嘗，市面上沒有銷售。

因為製作過程繁瑣，平常捨不得拿出來喝，感冒咳嗽以及腸胃不適的時候，以天然食療來飲用。客家傳統上認為柚子茶能清熱解毒、行氣止痛、止咳化痰，對傷風感冒、噁心嘔吐、腸胃不適等甚有助益，是極佳的保健養身茶。

柚子茶一般都是自家品嘗，市場上流通數量極少，越陳年的柚子茶越具有獨特風味，十年以上的柚子茶已屬難得。此次品茶會則特別推出三十年的柚子茶，與茶友們分享。
