Discover the Subtle Art of Tea Tasting
If you've ever wondered what lies beyond the teabag, or felt curious about the stories in your cup, you're in the right place. Tea tasting is a gentle journey of discovery, where each sip reveals something new about flavor, aroma, and the craft behind great tea.
Perhaps You've Felt This Too
You've tried different teas, maybe even some that came highly recommended. Yet when someone asks what you taste, the words don't quite come. There's a disconnect between what you're experiencing and how to express it, leaving you wondering if you're missing something others perceive.
Or perhaps you find yourself in tea shops, overwhelmed by choices and descriptions that sound beautiful but feel abstract. Terms like "vegetal notes" or "bright finish" seem like a language you haven't learned, creating hesitation when you'd like to explore with confidence.
Many people share this experience. They're curious about tea but uncertain how to move from casual enjoyment to deeper understanding. The gap between interest and knowledge can feel wider than it should, especially when learning resources assume expertise you haven't yet developed.
A Clear Path to Understanding
Structured Learning
Our approach breaks down tea tasting into clear, manageable steps. Each session builds on what came before, helping you develop skills at your own pace without feeling rushed or confused.
Supportive Guidance
You'll learn alongside others who share your curiosity, with experienced facilitators who understand how to make technical knowledge accessible and enjoyable rather than intimidating.
Personal Discovery
There's no single right way to taste tea. We help you develop confidence in your own perceptions while giving you the vocabulary and framework to articulate what you experience.
Your Journey of Discovery
Build Your Foundation
Start by learning to identify the basic flavor categories in tea. You'll develop an awareness of what to look for when you taste, moving from general impressions to specific observations. This foundation gives you the confidence to explore further.
Develop Your Vocabulary
As you taste more teas, you'll learn the language that helps you describe what you're experiencing. This isn't about memorizing terms but about connecting words to sensations, making it easier to communicate about tea and remember what you enjoyed.
Trust Your Palate
Over time, you'll notice your ability to detect nuances improving. What once seemed like subtle differences become clearer distinctions. You'll feel more confident choosing teas that match your preferences and exploring new ones with curiosity rather than uncertainty.
