October Tastings
3rd: Lapsangs: Premium Lapsang Bohea (black tea) and Imperial Qi Zhong Lapsang (oolong tea). We will start the month trying two different kinds of Lapsang tea, neither of which are the familiar smoked flavor of Lapsang Souchong. This will help show how the differences in processing can lead to very different flavors.
10th: Dan Cong Oolongs: Xue Lan Xiang (Snow Orchid) and Jin Jiang Mi Lan Xiang (Gold Medal Honey Orchid). This will be our first time tasting some of our Dan Cong oolongs. These are similar in look and style to the rock oolongs, with their long twisty leaves, but more floral and fruity.
17th: Puers: Big Leaf and Little Rose Tuocha. We venture back into the world of puer with a loose leaf and a small flavored tuocha.
24th: Scented and Herbal: Yin Hao Jasmine and Eight Treasures. After so many dark, heavy teas, it’s time to lighten up. We will give one of our four jasmine teas a try, as well as a signature herbal blend from China, Eight Treasures. Find out the health benefits of each of the eight treasures in this delightful and refreshing tisane.
31st: No tasting due to it being Halloween.
