一群喜欢单车旅行客和茶艺爱好者，再开拓“茶马古道下南洋”的路线，决定仿效当年茶马古道的马帮运茶，了解当年马帮运茶的过程，从新探讨马背上的茶，在长时间运输过程中如何发酵及发酵效果和奥秘。
“茶马古道下南洋”的路线设计，与当年的茶马古道有点不同
当年的马帮，在现代可称为“商队”。“茶马古道下南洋”，就是要重现一支穿州过省及跨越国界的商队，为商家提供合作契机，组成一支东合国家的商队，开拓一条东合十国的新商旅路线。
“茶马古道下南洋”的运输茶叶形式，会仿效当年马帮以马匹运茶，只是马帮所用的骡改骑现代的“铁马”，踏遍中国、寮国及泰国的名山大川，也藉此机会自我挑战，考验个人的极限。
当“茶马古道下南洋”的铁马茶队经过泰国，返抵马来西亚时相信会给茶马古道的历史添写新的一页，即“”铁马茶源”

The Beginning:
A group of cycling enthusiast and tea lover decides to reestablish the route of “Journey through Tea” by reenact how the ancient caravan of tea operated, and the secret of how the tea leafs fermented and aged through the long journey.
“A Journey through Tea” is slightly different from the original “Ancient Tea-Horse Road”, the new route will lead Southward, begins from Kunming, China, the original “Ancient Tea-Horse Road” starting point, to Laos, Thailand, and ended in Malaysia.
The ancient caravan is like the trade representative today, and “A Journey through Tea” is aimed to act as the trade representative to provide commercial opportunity to the commercial entities in South East Asia.
“A Journey through Tea” will imitate the ancient Caravan’s method to ship tea leaves, but instead of using horses, the team will use the modern “horse”, the bicycle to peddle through China, Laos, Thailand, and Malaysia, to experience the majestic landscape, and to challenge the participants’ endurance.
Along the journey, the bicycle team will visit the villages of the hill tribes, tracing back the route that the ancient caravan had treaded, and to seek the lost art of tea.
Upon the completion of the “A Journey through Tea”, we hope to mark a new page onto the history of “Ancient Tea-Horse Road”.
