Educating Tea Palates Through Focused
Tea Tastings
Welcome to the world of single origin, artisan, and premium loose leaf teas, sourced from tea gardens around the globe.
Not only is tea a healthy beverage, filled with antioxidants, but the vast variety of styles and flavors make it the most consumed beverage in the world after water.
Remember when wine consumed in America tended to be labeled red or white “jug” wine and coffee was purchased at the grocery store, in one basic flavor, already ground, in those round metal cans?
How far we have come in our knowledge and appreciation of those two beverages. Americans are now familiar with the many regions and countries that harvest grapes and coffee beans and how the various processing methods can produce different styles and tastes. How the "terroir" in a growing area gives a uniqueness to whatever is harvested there.
Now it is tea’s turn. With less caffeine per cup than coffee and no alcohol like wine, but with all those flavonols and catechins, premium tea is a healthy, varied, and most of all, flavorful, beverage.
