At Home Tea Flights - January 2023 - Expand Your Horizons
Drinking tea you typically wouldn't drink is a great way to expand your palate. It exposes you to new flavors, mouth feels, and smells. Yes, the first cup can be jolting, we recommend you have 3 cups (unadulterated with milk/cream/sweeteners) before determining a tea is not for you. So here are the teas to help you expand your horizons.
-
Dominion Caravan: An American twist on classic Russian Caravan. Smoky Chinese Lapsang Souchong forms the base of this savory full-bodied tea, blended with Chinese Indian and Sri Lankan black teas.
-
Matcha Infused Genmaicha: We’ve taken our classic genmaicha – toasted brown rice blended with savory Japanese green tea – and infused it with matcha powder for additional richness and complexity of flavor.
-
Wen Shan (Bao Zhong) Oolong: A delicate beauty out of Taiwan, this twisted-style oolong’s light oxidation levels produce a pale cream liquor with milky floral notes and a lingering fruit finish.
Our at home tea flight is a way for you to sample new teas and practice identifying flavors and mouth-feels. We have included a tasting card with a flavor pinwheel for you to use in your sampling to improve and practice your capability to identify flavors.
- General Guidance:
- Follow the instructions on each bag for the best tasting experience.
