SLURP & SPIT

SLUUUUUUUURP AND SPIT​

​Here's what to do if you really want to taste a great tea:
​
  1. First, look at the leaves - dry.  Make sure they are good quality leaves and not like the ones you find in old teabags.
  2. Next, make the tea.
  3. Then, look at the wet leaves and at the liquor.  Is it clear?  What colour is it?
  4. Then you might want to add milk if you're tasting a black tea.
  5. Then take a sip.  Professional tea tasters use 2 spoons - one to scoop and ladle, and the other to sip from.
  6. Now, SLURP.  Suck the tea from the cup or spoon and make a SLURP sound and let the tea spray all over your palate.
  7. What do you notice?  Is it smooth?
  8. When you swallow the tea, how long does the flavour linger?​
  9. Finally, make an overall assessment - was it enjoyable?  Did you like it?
