Analytical Tasting: How 6 Taiwan Teas Express Cultivar and Process

Lucy’s tea journey began in 2011, when she started learning the art of tea brewing from tea masters. What began as a quiet practice of mindfulness soon grew into a deep curiosity to explore the mysteries of tea.

By 2016, she dedicated herself fully to studying Taiwanese tea and tea culture, earning professional certifications in both Taiwan and China. Along the way, she also participated in tea competitions, where her creativity was recognized with consecutive awards for Innovative Tea Brewing and Table Design.

Lucy’s professional path has taken her into the heart of Taiwan’s tea industry. At the Taiwan Tea Research and Extension Station, she worked closely with young farmers, helping them improve tea cultivation, processing, and quality. She also supported international tea education programs as a teaching assistant and translator, and in 2023, she was honored to host the International Tea Symposium.

Today, Lucy continues to share her passion for Taiwanese tea—through teaching, tasting, cultural storytelling, and creating meaningful tea experiences in Taiwan’s tea regions. Her work is rooted in both tradition and innovation, always with the belief that tea connects people in profound and beautiful ways.
