Tea is the worlds' most popular drink and right here in Taiwan
-
It is one of the supreme areas to grow tea, so right now we're gonna go on a tour of everything tea.
-
I've traveled up and over the jungle clad mountains outside of Taipei
-
and right below me is a tea plantation
-
there are three harvest seasons here in Taiwan with the tea plants
-
and what they do is they trim them down and then they wait 45 days
-
and this is what becomes the tea, pretty cool!
-
You see this gondola right here? well I'm gonna jump on this bad boy it's gonna take me up the mountain
-
beautiful sights, let's go!
-
This place is so cool it's like I'm floating look at that! love it.
-
We're just above the city I get to see the sprawling sprawling center of Taipei
-
jungle, temples, it's beautiful.
-
That giant teapot can only mean one thing
-
I am at the Tea Research and Promotion Center. Let's go learn about tea.
-
What I'm holding right now is Oolong tea which is one of the specialties of the region
-
yeah, it's a winner!
-
This big plate right here is full of tea seeds and this isn't for making tea
-
they actually make oil out of this for cooking pretty cool.
-
Of all the tea products they make, this one right here is by far my favorite
-
ice cream! it really does taste like tea.
-
I learned a lot about tea today I got to spend some time in the beautiful great outdoors near Taipei
-
and I'm heading home with my very own bag of tea.
