" I keep asking myself throughout my tea journey: What Taiwanese tea is, and what it should be. Regarding tea tasting, I believe the mind is more important than our palate.

" Tea fascinates me both scientifically and culturally; it's a testament to humanity's ability to engage with nature harmoniously, transforming its gifts into something exquisite. When done right, tea becomes a beautiful creation that is fragrant, delicious, and almost magical. As a tea evaluator, I believe part of my job is to translate that mythical magic into a context that can be easier for everyone to access. "

" TASTING is not merely a preference; it is also the most accessible and universal sensory language that transcends cultural barriers. It is precisely this language— using humans as instruments, and employing sight, smell, taste, touch, and hearing, combined with objective measurements to analyze food —that enables international gastronomes to communicate, discuss, and evaluate on a common basis.  "
