Lot 23: Hometown Island Coffee Manor Lee, Ting-Yi
Lot Pricing Information
Located in Nantou County—the heart of Taiwan’s coffee-growing region—Hometown Island Coffee Manor sits on the northern slopes of the Yushan mountain range at elevations between 800 and 920 meters. This unique microclimate offers ideal conditions for cultivating exceptional coffee.
What sets the estate apart is its deep respect for terroir. The farm has intentionally preserved its original rugged landscape, including steep, rocky terrain that is difficult to walk through. By avoiding excessive land alteration, the coffee trees are allowed to grow in a natural, minimally disturbed environment—resulting in flavor profiles that genuinely reflect the land.
The estate focuses on cultivating Red Bourbon, one of Taiwan’s heritage coffee varieties. Known for its elegant and nuanced character, Red Bourbon is carefully processed using refined post-harvest techniques that bring out its full potential.
From soil to cup, Hometown Island Coffee Manor is committed to delivering a pure and honest expression of Taiwanese coffee—rooted in place, variety, and craftsmanship.
