Welcome to the J-Tea Blog

I've been sourcing tea in Taiwan since 2004. This is where I write about it.

Not reviews. Not rankings. Stories — about the farmers I work with, the regions I keep going back to, and what twenty years of paying attention to one thing actually teaches you. If you want to understand why a Li Shan oolong tastes different from an Alishan, or what makes a raw puer worth aging, or how I ended up living in Taiwan in the first place — it's in here somewhere.

Start anywhere. Or browse the categories. The tea's already in your cup.
