When it comes to coffee, Taiwanese people usually think it is imported from other countries instead of being planted in Taiwan. However, to many people's amazement, some good coffee is actually grown in Taiwan.

Coffee was first planted in Taiwan around two centuries ago. In the 1880s, a British businessman planted 100 coffee plants in the north of Taiwan, but most of the plants died because of the weather. The golden age of coffee in Taiwan started in 1902. At that time, the Japanese rulers thought of coffee as a good cash crop. They began planting coffee and building many factories in Hualien, Chiayi, and Yunlin, where both the soil and weather were good for coffee. The coffee industry grew soon, and Taiwan became the center for coffee production in East Asia.

The coffee industry once disappeared after World War II. However, in 1984, Chang Laien, a coffee lover, started to plant coffee in Yunlin. When Chang was a child, his grandfather grew coffee there. Chang decided to devote himself to the coffee business. He started to grow,

produce, and sell his own coffee. As his business grew, people began to taste great Taiwan-grown coffee. Chang's success has attracted many farmers to run a coffee business.

Now, the coffee industry has been brought back to life again. Many people produce great coffee in Taiwan. Though no one can tell if there will be a second golden age of coffee, Taiwan's coffee is surely something to make the island proud.
