The fire has been kept on the burner for a century only for each tea leaf to grow into its full exquisite beauty.

In 1917, Mr. Hsu Jin-Rong started his intertwining relationship with Taiwan tea. Besides cultivating in a tea plantation, he also sourced quality tea from other tea farmers and re-sold it to foreign trading houses that exclusively handled all imports and exports at the time. And this is how the story of Emei Tea House began.

Formerly called, “Emei Tea Shop”, Emei Tea House is located in Emei Township in Hsinchu County. With a history of 100 years, Emei Tea House is now managed by three fourth-generation brothers, Hsu Ming-Feng included. Together they inherited the professional tea processing know-how. They climb many mountains to visit various tea plantations in Taiwan and supervise all procedures in the plantation ranging from tea selection, processing, classification and packaging. They spend extensive amount of time on accumulating experience, apply exclusive roasting techniques and attend to meticulous details, as well as winning many awards in major tea competitions.
