Brewed with authentic Taiwanese tea leaves—newly opened bubble tea shop in Taichung
Text & Photos /DaKou
It’s probably common knowledge that Taiwanese people love drinking tea. Tea gift boxes are not only great souvenirs, but various bubble tea shops have also sprung up everywhere. However, previous reports about some bubble tea shops using imported tea leaves containing pesticides have made people both love and fear bubble tea—they want to drink it but are hesitant. This time, we’re introducing a “Da Ming Taiwanese Tea Handcrafted Specialty Store” that uses 100% Taiwanese tea and has passed all SGS inspections.
Da Ming is located on Dazhi Road in East District, Taichung, right across from the Dayeh Takashimaya New Era Mall. The owner is a tea farmer himself and was previously a supplier to many bubble tea shops. His homemade tea gift boxes have even won the top award in the “2011 and 2013 Taichung Top 10 Local Souvenirs,” featuring exquisite packaging and premium quality. To allow consumers to enjoy truly authentic local Taiwanese tea, the owner specially opened this “Da Ming Taiwanese Tea Handcrafted Specialty Store.” One sip and you’ll know it’s made with genuine ingredients—you’ll become a loyal customer instantly.

It doesn’t feel gritty at all and pairs excellently with their milk tea. Their milk tea has a mellow tea aroma, rich and creamy milk flavor, and a full-bodied, sweet taste—the combination with the taro paste is simply perfect. Also, their Fresh Taro Milk Tea contains no taro flavoring; it’s all made with natural ingredients, so it’s not cloying at all—that’s what we loved most. It’s also the first time 大口 has had such an amazing Fresh Taro Milk Tea!
