Tea is an indispensable part of Chinese life. Made from young and tender leaves of the tea tree, there are many different types of tea available based on the processing methods. Tea leaves are roasted and fermented. Through fermentation, the tea turns reddish brown in color. The time of roasting and degree of fermentation determines the fragrance that the tea leave will give out. Tea that has not been fermented is known as 'green tea'. Each tea has a unique name and taste that would capture the pleasures of different individuals. Not everyone would enjoy the same tea. Some may prefer bitter tea, while others like it sweet.
Tea is also an agricultural asset in Taiwan. Specialized tea shops all over the island promote the art of tea drinking, which attracts foreigners and locals alike. The price of tea varies according to the grade. The practice of tea drinking has become a fragment of a sophisticated spiritual life and is a tradition that will never disintegrate.
