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.

Taiwan Nantou Guoxing Coffee 225g - dou coffee

My Gateway to Loving Coffee

I used to think coffee was just bitter… until DOU. Their beans are smooth, comforting. I can actually taste notes—like longan sweetness and citrus brightness—without feeling overwhelmed. It’s the first time I’ve felt like specialty coffee was for me, not just experts.

Home Brewer’s Delight

DOU’s Guoxing beans changed my morning ritual. Balanced, aromatic, and full of character — I can actually taste the difference from my other international collection. The roast profile brings out the sweetness without bitterness. For anyone brewing at home, these beans make every cup feel handcrafted.

Amazing Taste, But Small Batches Sell Out Fast

The flavor? Unbelievable. The availability? Frustrating.
DOU’s micro-lots are delicious but often out of stock. I wish they could scale production without losing quality.

Need more Instructions

I love the idea behind DOU — showcasing Taiwan’s diverse coffee regions is brilliant. The Guoxing beans had great depth, but my first brew came out a bit sharp, probably due to my grind setting. After many trials , though, the sweetness and fruit notes really opened up. Not perfect from the start, but worth the effort to get right!
I hope they provide more information about the beans like grinding suggestions

it’s Taiwan in liquid form

Every cup of this coffee feels like tracing the island’s mountain ridges with your senses — misty mornings, sunlit leaves, and the whisper of rain in every sip. 

The beans bloom with layers of sweetness and depth, revealing notes that linger like a memory you don’t want to fade.
