The oolong green tea from this store has a moderate sweetness. Although it’s not stunning, it is consistently good and a great option for quenching your thirst on a daily basis, and the price is quite affordable.
The shop may not be large, but there is a wide variety of beverages, and the environment is simple and comfortable.
The staff's attitude is friendly, and the food is made to order and served quite quickly.
Yipin Xuan is located on Minben Street in Xinzhuang District, a bit of a distance from Danfeng MRT Station. The yellow-green sign is quite noticeable, and the location isn’t hard to find.
Today, I enjoyed an Oolong green tea priced at 30 NT dollars.
Oolong green tea:
The blend of Oolong and green tea is quite well-balanced. The lightly sweetened option has a moderate sweetness; it’s a decent drink that doesn’t provide any stunning sensations but also avoids being a letdown. It’s a safe option for daily hydration.
A large cup of one liter costs 30 NT dollars, which is hard to find at such a price in the Taipei area.
The small shop may not have a lot of space, but the drink menu is quite diverse. The staff is friendly, and drinks are made fresh upon order, with a fairly quick turnaround.
Overall, it’s a budget-friendly and consistently flavored street-side beverage shop. It’s perfect for picking up a drink on the go and great for times when you need to hydrate a lot or just quench your thirst.
Next door is a delicious snail kitchen serving Italian pasta, which you might want to try as well.
Recommended to everyone.
