CUPPING TEA:  AN OOLONG TEA TASTING

In this class, we will cup eight exquisitely rich Oolong teas from China and Taiwan – well known for their premium oolongs.  We will conduct a tea-tasting for you, using professional cupping sets that you will take home with you!  While you are led through a sampling of oolong teas, we will discuss their origin, how they are manufactured, and the different nuances of flavor and aroma of each tea. All participants will leave with a solid knowledge of the harvesting and production of oolong teas, and their proper brewing and storage methods. A light tea snack after the tasting will be provided.
