Tea Tasting – How Do I Taste My Tea?

When we’re tasting tea, mainly we have to look for the following key features of selected tea,

  • Appearance – Is it twisted, rolled, or a natural, flat leaf?
  • Aroma/fragrance  -Smell the leaves before steeping. Do they smell grassy, smoky, or sweet?
  • Flavor – Is it citrusy, flowery, toasty, or fruity?
  • Color –  Is it a bright, deep color?
  • Mouthfeel – Is it sweet? Bitter? salty? acidic/sourness?
