One of the nicer blogs about tea is the one by Marshal N, called “A Tea Addict’s Journal“. If you are interested in learning about Taiwanese teas, then Marshal N’s blog is a surely a recommended stop on the way.

Today I was browsing through some of the older entries, and saw this one that described a park in Taiwan that describes the manufacturing process of tea. Very fascinating!

In the same article Marshal also shares with us the pictures of the tea manufacturing process taken in a old tea store called Youji. I highly recommend taking a detour over to Marshal’s website and checking out this and other entries!

In the article, Marshal describes the “Youji” owner’s lament about the decline of interest in tea among the young. Its easy to get pessimistic, however I believe there will be a resurgence of interest in the young about the traditional taiwanese ways of making tea. Its just a matter of time - just like how “old” ways are becoming more and more fashionable here in the US.
