Yueshan Workshop was founded in 2002 in Zhushan Township, Nantou County, by Liu Chao-ming, a bamboo artisan and bamboo material processor from the township. It is Taiwan's last remaining smoked bamboo processing plant, renowned for using a smoking method to transform the fresh, green color of bamboo into a deep brown hue.

Yueshan Workshop's smoked bamboo processing technology is derived from Japan's "smoky bamboo" (smoked bamboo) technique. During the development of the smoked bamboo technology, they once attempted to use the curing barns formerly used in the tobacco industry's development in Zhushan Township, Nantou County, to smoke the bamboo. They also experimented with modifying plastic barrels and gasoline drums into tools for smoking bamboo. Now, they have constructed brick kilns and other smoked bamboo equipment specifically designed for this purpose, which can directly smoke bamboo poles longer than 2 meters.

Yueshan Workshop was established on July 5, 2002. Its first director was Liu Chao-ming, and it is currently scheduled to be taken over by Liu Chao-ming's son, Liu Yao-cheng. Its business operations focus on smoked bamboo materials primarily made from smoked Moso bamboo, Ma bamboo, and thorny bamboo, as well as briefly processed bamboo cups and chopsticks, and it also sells bamboo tube furniture. In recent years, it has also collaborated with Architects Taiwan and other firms to create bamboo structures.

Yueshan Workshop's smoked bamboo technique is based on the traditional Japanese "susutake" (smoked bamboo) technique. By using the smoke and heat from burning woods such as longan, the outer skin of the bamboo is smoked to a brown color. Before smoking, the bamboo must first be boiled to remove oil and reduce starch for moderate preservation, and then placed in a kiln for smoking. The entire smoking process takes about 20 days.
