Legacy of Refined Taste
In the verdant region of Dashu, Taiwan, where rich soil meets golden sunshine, our artisans carefully select hand-picked, export-quality lychees. Each fruit is gently coaxed to perfection through time-honored techniques, ensuring that every bite carries nature's finest offerings. This meticulous selection process reflects our unwavering commitment to both sustainable practices and authentic flavors.
Artisanal Mastery・Symphony of Flavors

Our artisans lovingly transform each lychee through a meticulously planed three-day smoking process, carefully turning them every twelve hours to ensure perfect heating. This patient curing and precise baking creates a pastry that honors centuries of tradition while achieving unparalleled perfection.
Pure Ingredients
Our dedication to sustainability begins with selecting the finest plant-based ingredients from local sources. Each element is thoughtfully chosen and prepared, creating a harmonious balance between contemporary wellness and traditional flavors.
Distinguished Flavor
The pastry's buttery, flaky crust yields to reveal a sumptuous filling, where the luscious, velvety texture of winter melon paste harmonizes with the deep sweetness of smoked lychee, creating an enchanting symphony of flavors that dance on your palate.
A Tale of Imperial Romance
During the opulent Tang Dynasty, Emperor Xuanzong's deep affection for Lady Yang knew no bounds. He sought to delight her with lychees, a fruit so rare and exquisite that it symbolized not only love but also imperial power. This adoration led to the creation of the 'Lychee Express,' a dedicated courier system that raced day and night to deliver the freshest lychees to the imperial capital. Du Mu's timeless poem captures the essence of this extravagance: 'Amidst stirred dust, a royal smile blooms—none knew it was for lychees,' hinting at the lengths to which the emperor would go to satisfy his beloved. The esteemed poet Su Dongpo later confessed, 'For a taste of fresh lychee, I would gladly dwell in the South,' further immortalizing the fruit's allure. This enduring romance has transformed lychees into a symbol of profound affection and refined taste, making it one of China's most treasured imperial gifts.
