The Mao Xin tea house has produced four generations of tea farmers here in Taiwan. The Tseng family have been growing tea all the way from the Japanese colonial era to this day. The entire family has a very deep emotional connection to the local culture especially that involving tea and its Zen. It is an aspiration for the entire family to be able to continue passing this on to future generations.
Research
