Yilan
Kumquat
You can eat the skin too?
Michella, what are you drinking?
Kumquat tea.
Come what tea?
Kumquat tea. A kumquat is a citrus fruit with edible
skin, and it looks like an olive
Oh and let me guess, they��re grown here in Yilan,
and that��s why we��re here today?
Oh grow up.
So Cedric, this is a kumquat, you can eat the entire
thing. Start with the skin.
OK. Oh it has that zesty, fragrant, citrus smell,
and the skin is sweet, too!
Now try the meat.
Oh! It��s sour! It��s delicious! Is it some kind of
a lemon?
No, it��s not a lemon. It��s not as sour as a lemon.
I can eat baskets of this stuff at once.
Kumquats were originally from China, but the Japanese
brought it to Taiwan around the turn of the 20th century
during the occupation. They love the taste so much
and found that Yilan had the perfect climate conditions
for them.
So perfect that over there, I saw a tree with kumquat,
lemon, orange and CD��s. All four grew on it.
Cedric, did you know that this is one of the oldest
and most popular tourism factories in Taiwan?
Yeah and I hear its beginnings are quite interesting,
can you tell us how it started?
My mother teaches at National Yilan University, she
teaches food processing. But at the university, she
wasn��t able to find a factory that would really open
their doors to students and internships, so my parents
decided to create a place for them to learn.
Cedric, I didn��t know that kumquats were so tasty
and so interesting. The story behind them was incredible!
Yeah, and they are fun to pick, fun to candy and fun
to eat.
And you should come!
