About us
30 Years of Excellence in Oolong Tea Production
Founded in 1995, 101 Tea Plantation began with young Oolong plants sourced directly from Taiwan, featuring initial cultivars like the tender Oolong No.17 (Soft-stem) and the aromatic Oolong No.12 (Jin Xuan). Shortly after, we introduced the robust Oolong Four Seasons, enriching our variety.
Pioneering terrace tea farming on Mt. Mae Salong, we established the first factory of its kind in the region and began distributing our tea locally. Our plantation is uniquely situated approximately 850 meters above sea level, sprawling over 560,000 square meters of fertile land.
Over the years, 101 Tea has not only supplied fine Oolong tea but has also played a pivotal role in supporting the local community. Our commitment to quality was internationally recognized in 2004 when we took first place at the World Tea Festival, marking just one of our many proud achievements.

Supporting Our Local Community
At 101 Tea Plantation, community well-being is at the heart of everything we do. During harvest seasons, we partner with local hill tribes, providing meaningful employment and fair compensation for their invaluable contribution. This partnership not only preserves traditional harvesting methods but also supports sustainable livelihoods, empowering communities and fostering lasting relationships built on mutual respect and shared prosperity.

We utilize pure, natural water sources from the pristine mountains of Mae Salong, ensuring every leaf thrives under the best possible conditions. By exclusively using non-chemical fertilizers, we prioritize both the health of our consumers and the planet. Our sustainable agricultural practices not only maintain soil health and biodiversity but also guarantee the authentic taste and purity of our premium Oolong teas.
