Ya-Gu Coffee Estate

Ya-Gu Coffee Estate is located in Guoxing Township, Nantou County, Taiwan, dedicated to producing specialty coffee and has consistently achieved outstanding results in domestic and international specialty coffee evaluations.

Natural Environment

Guoxing is home to the famous Dahengping Mountain with an elevation of 1,050 meters, featuring pristine forest vegetation. After summer rains, mountain waterfalls reach dozens of meters high, creating breathtaking scenery. The flowing streams nurture diverse wildlife and numerous plant species.

As morning mist envelops the mountains and lush green forests stretch for kilometers with sparse human presence, this area boasts exceptional natural beauty and provides a tranquil environment.

Farming and Processing

The estate is situated in this pristine setting at an altitude of 850 meters, which qualifies as high-mountain coffee for high-latitude coffee-growing regions. Through manual weed removal, organic fertilizer application, and careful management, they produce excellent quality green beans, which are then expertly roasted to supply consumers.
