Taiwanese tea, having journeyed through time, holds historical flavor traces and a unique position. Both are renowned for their attention to detail and mastery of technique. The tea-making process requires precise control of time, temperature, and methods to extract the finest flavors and aromas. Similarly, paper-cutting artists must meticulously cut paper and handle every detail with precision to create exquisite works. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54252919722_bcfa74142f_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54269435045_eee4059343_b.jpg ----- **Traditional Eastern Scenting Process - Only the Fragrance is Heard, Not the Flowers Seen** "Scenting" is a tea-making craft that infuses natural floral aromas into tea leaves. Flowers and tea intertwine and layer, and as time flows, the tea leaves absorb the floral fragrance, ultimately presenting a unique and exquisite flavored tea. Western-style floral teas, on the other hand, use blending techniques where all ingredients are brewed together. The scenting process involves mixing tea leaves with freshly picked flowers. Through capillary action, the tea leaves absorb the floral aroma. The Ming Dynasty book "Cha Pu" (Tea Manual) records that any fragrant flower can be used for scenting. When flowers are in bloom, a paper-lined bamboo basket is divided into two layers: tea is placed on the upper layer and flowers on the lower. This process is repeated several times, imbuing the tea leaves with the floral scent. After completion, the flowers are removed, leaving only the tea leaves, thus creating floral tea. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51813960856_b28da3c54e_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54253822501_aa6c964205_k.jpg **The Scented Floral Tea Series is dedicated to those who strive tirelessly in every craft, showcasing the beauty and accessibility of paper-cutting and tea-making artistry.** https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54949313219_a5f26da95b_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55329744841_88947d22ed_b.jpg **Every Sip of Tea is a Gentle Embrace of the Taiwanese Land** Luyuan Tea House, with four generations of tradition, not only selects a fine cup of tea for you but also insists on coexisting harmoniously with the environment and society.
