To make a product more widely known, a bit of creative packaging and design is essential. In Beitou, a place called "Charm Villa" has launched uniquely shaped fish tea bags. When these small tea bags are placed in a cup and hot water is poured in, they instantly transform into fish swimming in the water. Their adorable appearance has made them a popular and talked-about souvenir that many foreigners specifically seek out when visiting Taiwan!

This fish tea bag, designed by CharmVilla, has won the German Red Dot Design Award for Communication Design and currently holds patents in 34 countries worldwide. Its ingenious design has given the fish tea bag considerable international fame, attracting many foreign tourists to specifically visit its store in Beitou to purchase it. Currently, there are three tea flavors available: Rose Oolong Tea, Ruby Black Tea, and Jin Xuan Tea. Simply place the tea bag in a cup, pour in hot water to let the little fish "take a bath," and adjust the steeping time according to your preferred strength to quickly enjoy a fragrant, hot cup of tea. Beyond just smell and taste, it’s also a visual treat. Due to the intricate production process, it’s currently only available for order online or for purchase at the physical store. Next time you’re wondering what to give to a foreign friend, why not consider a fish tea bag?
