2012 World Tea Expo - Taiwan Tea Districts & New Cultivars


Taiwan Tea Research and Extension Station (TRES) is responsible for research, development, and promotion of Taiwan tea, as well as providing education, training and information to local tea farmers. The station is equipped with excellent research and farming facilities and organizers regular training programs, lectures, workshops, demonstrations, and exhibitions for tea growers. The station also promotes organic farming, soil and water conservation and environmentally sound pest control techniques to protect the environment and assure the safety of local tea products.  

Over the years, Taiwan Tea Manufacturers Association (TTMA) has worked very closely with TRES for Taiwan tea's continuous development.  This year, for 2012 World Tea Expo, we have the great honor to have TRES Director Iou-Zen Chen to help out Taiwan Tea Stage programs.  Director Chen has three sessions: one session to briefly introduce the current major tea districts in Taiwan., and two sessions to share the new tea cultivars developed by TRES.  We are about to bring in the Terroir and Cultivar's special characters found in Taiwan Oolong.
