In 1945, at the close of World War II, Wu Chen-tau, known as the Father of Taiwan Tea, came here from a Fujianese tea village and took charge of the experimental tea facility in Yang-mei. He selected three varieties — Nos. 2027, 2028 and 2029 — from among 4,300 tea bushes the Japanese had planted. The first two of these became Taiwan Tea No.
1945 年二戰結束，自福建茶鄉來台的「台茶之父」吳振鐸接手楊梅茶試驗場，從日本人改良的 4,300 多株實生苗中選拔出 2027、2029 等品系，此即今日的台茶 12 號「金萱」和台茶 13 號「翠玉」。
