In the process of naming the brand, I went through a lot of historical literature.
Until one day, I accidentally read a Tang poem, Venerable Kyauk Ran's "Song of Drinking Tea for Envoy Cui Shi", which touched me deeply. Its language is not flashy, but it has a kind of shock that travels through time and space.
In a few short lines, the "Three Drinks" of the poem lead one from physical awakening to mental clarity, and ultimately to inner enlightenment. Today, a thousand years later, these few lines of the poem still speak to the heart.
✦ One drink. Go to sleep.
"A drink clears the sleepy mind, and the world is full of fresh thoughts."
The first sip of tea is like the first ray of sunshine in the morning, waking up the body and mind from their drowsiness.
For modern people, this is the truest solace in life - letting go of anxiety and slowing down the breathing.
The temperature of the tea doesn't just warm us up, it reminds us:Life can be slower and clearer.
✦ Drink again. Clear your mind.
"Drinking again clears my mind, and suddenly it's like a shower of dust."
The second sip of tea washes away the dust from my heart and makes my thoughts clear up like the first day after a rainy day.
At this point, we begin to think: Where am I? What kind of life do I want to lead?
"We at Three Drinks believe thatEvery time you make tea, it's a conversation with yourself; every time you sip it, it's a deep journey.
✦ Three beverages, get the Way
"Three drinks and you'll be on your way, no need for pain and trouble."
The third sip of tea is not just a treat for the taste buds, it's more like an epiphany.
Troubles seem to dissipate with the aroma of tea, leaving behind a sense of lightness and relief.
At Three Drinks, we believe that good tea is not only a thirst quencher, but also a reminder of wisdom:Let go of your obsession and return to your heart in the aroma of tea.
✦ Transforming Tang Poetry into a Philosophy of Life
Kyaw Ran's poem was written a thousand years ago in the mountains and forests, but its spirit is still close to the heart today.
In this fast-paced world, we need a space to slow down and calm down.
What "Three Drinks" wants to do is not just to sell tea, but to make tea a way of life.
We use tea leaves from the high mountains of Taiwan and blend them with contemporary design and cultural and creative language to bring the Zen aesthetics of Tang poetry back into modern life.
Not only do you get the fresh aroma of Taiwanese tea, but you also feel the depth and warmth of a thousand years of culture.
✦ Why is it called "Three Drinks Hall"?
Because the name hidesA rhythm of tea tasting is also a journey of spiritual cultivation.。
Three sips of tea represent three states of mind: awakening, clarity, and transparency-which is not just a verse, but also a snapshot of different stages of life.
I believe that the "Three Drinks" have set a spiritual standard for tea culture and opened a door to the inner world for modern people.
The name "Three Drinks Hall" was born out of this poetic and philosophical approach.
I sincerely hope thatIt can be a part of your life and mine.I am very happy to see that every time I make a cup of tea, it becomes the beginning of a quiet look at the world and a slow taste of life.
