黃金緯度-山和院

​

簡單，不簡單 / Simple, but more.

​

設計概念： 『山和院』源自1940年，至今70多年時間， 地點位於台灣嘉義，古名又稱「諸羅山」，顧名思義群山圍繞至天際，坐落於北迴半山腰以上，『黃金緯度』50公尺內的位置(23"-33'-48.11')， 其豐富的天然資源，使『山和院』對於做好茶的堅持與屬於山的品味背負著一份使命。

第三代接班人，將『茶職人』的精神發揚光大， 從材料嚴選以生長49天葉片為主， 掌握茶葉精華時段14~16小時，秉持14道傳統手工做法， 尊重製茶每一個環節，加上用心團揉茶葉42次， 將茶韻100%給予保存。製茶不簡單，但，『山和院』卻能帶給您『簡單之道』。

​

『山型』的特殊包裝設計，除了象徵高山茶來自一座接鄰一座的阿里山樣貌之外; 同時『三角形』的符號，也代表『製茶職人』所調配的黃金比例， 帶給消費者絕佳的口感層次與視覺體驗的感受。觀察『採茶者/tea picker』在採茶過程中所使用的器具， 用於肩背或繫在腰間，俗稱『茶籠』;於是，我們透過『山』的中文字體元素，不斷延伸與重複的編織手法，達到傳承東方文化的意涵。整體包裝設計訴求，只為了傳遞出『茶職人』對品茶與工法的堅持;同時讓『山和院』品牌由內而外，散發出一份對天/地/人的敬仰。
