Our Tea Wizard
Lin Zhi-Chun
Meet Lin Zhi-Chun, the oolong tea wizard whose magic started brewing at age 11 in Lugu, Taiwan—birthplace of the legendary Dong Ding Oolong.
By 2006, he had brewed his way to the top, out-steeping over 5,000 competitors to snag 1st Place in the Global Chinese Oolong Tea Championship.
Now crowned a National Tea Artisan, he's the only Taiwanese tea maestro with China’s nod of approval, dedicating his life to the art of oolong.
As the mastermind at HD Oolong Tea Plantation, Lin judges tea battles, mentors budding artisans, and spins tea into unforgettable tales.
The Oolong Love series?
Yup, that’s Lin’s masterpiece in a mug!
Founding a tea company
From Taiwan with Love
Our adventure kicked off in Taiwan, where oolong tea isn't just a drink—it's practically a personality trait. In 2004, we packed up our bags and moved from Lugu, Taiwan, to the enchanting, mist-laden peaks of Zhangping, Fujian, crafting a tea farm that’s the ultimate mashup of ancient tradition and cutting-edge innovation. Every leaf is handpicked and pampered on our eco-friendly, precision-regulated mountain plantation that's setting the gold standard for Chinese oolong. We're not just in the tea business—we're in the business of brewing award-winning experiences. Our Oolong Tea is your ticket to a sensory joyride, energizing your spirit while serenading your soul. From our mountain to your mug—welcome to the world of Oolong Love!
