「品茗，一場感官與意識的探索。」

Savoring tea, adventure of the senses and the mind.

茶是廣為普及於大眾生活中的飲品，「喝茶」已成為全世界人類共享的日常。鑑於許多人有喝茶習慣，卻對如何品茗一知半解，「茶多酚實驗室-五感六識品茗特展」將透過科學角度解析抽象感覺，引領大家打開感官、潛入意識，品味茶的萬千風情。

喝茶，可以只是解渴，例如隨處能買到的罐裝茶，也可以是情感表現，例如臺灣充滿人情味的奉茶風俗。茶，是生活，亦是文化。喝茶並沒有特定標準，因為每個人的感覺與喜好都是獨一無二的，而身體對茶的品味，則兼具理性與感性，理性，是透過科學角度探討品茗背後的原理，深度發掘人對茶的感知力；感性，讓茶引領我們進入心靈的探索，心領神會難以言喻的美感與智慧。

由天、地、人共同孕育而出的茶，能變化出千萬種的風土之味，茶的種植、製作、沖泡、品飲等流程，每個環節都會影響茶的樣貌、香氣、滋味與口感。歡迎您進入茶多酚實驗室，層層解析茶之奧妙，開啟一場從五感到心靈的探索旅程。

Tea has become a commonplace item, a drink shared by the world's cultures, a habit. Accordingly, this exhibition seeks to reinvigorate the senses and dive beyond the conscious, as we take you on a voyage to the depths of tea culture.

Drinking tea can be simple as quenching one's thirst, or as intricate as sensations evoked by Taiwan's tea offering custom. Tea is at once life and culture. There are no standards nor set preferences – what we like is personal. To the body, it appeals to both rationality and sensibility – one precipitates scientific inquiry and understanding; the other lifts us beyond the grasp of words, to a spiritual realm of sublime wisdom and beauty.

A product of microclimates, soil conditions, and human craft, tea unites delicate flavors of nature with art. From its growth, processing, brewing, to tasting, each variable is carefully encoded into tea’s final appearance, aroma, taste, and texture. Step in to our lab where you can savor the mystique, and open your senses to a boundless journey of the mind.
