Coffee growing has an interesting history in the NANTOU area, especially around Guoxing township. Here, coffee cultivation was greatly encouraged by government investment following the disruptive “921” earthquake of 1999. Research had shown that many of the crops grown before in this area had caused significant soil erosion leading to increased danger of landslides in this earthquake prone area. One of the crops suggested as an improvement in sustainability was coffee.
Many of the farms in the area either converted existing crops to coffee or planted new farms on vacant lands. The owner of this farm worked in a unrelated industry but wanted to become more ecologically involved - he purchased some land, planted coffee trees in the early 2000s and began production ten years later. Such has been his success that he was driven to focus his attention completely on his coffee investments as the fame of his product grew.
His products are regularly entered into local competitions where blind tasting confirms his successful efforts. We prefer a lighter roast for these beans to fully realise the complex and fruit notes that can be achieved.

A Discovery

As someone who obsesses over pour-over techniques and grinder settings. These beans are like fine art — complex florals, delicate stone fruit, and a chocolate finish that lingers. It’s easily on par with top-tier Panama Gesha.

Refined. Rare. Remarkable. This coffee elevates my morning ritual. From the delicate packaging to the layered, complex cup, it’s a brand that whispers sophistication. Worth every dollar.

Taiwanese Coffee is a surprise

The online shop is a real gem for coffee lovers. They have a fantastic selection of beans from different Taiwanese regions, clearly described with tasting notes that helped me choose. Delivery to my doorstep was surprisingly fast, and everything was carefully packed. Can’t wait to explore more from them!

A Symphony in a Cup

I’ve tried specialty coffees from all over the world, but this coffee is in a league of its own. From the moment I opened the bag, the aroma was intoxicating—bright floral notes mingled with hints of caramel. Brewed as a pour-over, it delivered a silky body with layers of citrus, and a gentle nutty finish. It’s like a sunrise in the Taiwanese mountains captured in every sip. Absolutely exquisite—this is pure joy!

Little Disappointed

Honestly, I wanted to love these beans more than I did. The packaging is gorgeous and the story behind Taiwanese coffee is fascinating. But when I brewed it up, the flavor seemed a bit flat — not bad, just not super memorable.
