The Blind Green Tea Tasting Challenge

Celine's idea to challenge my tastebuds.

Share

It was a weekend and we had to film a video but I did not have the time to plan a full on masterclass so Celine suggested we have a tasting challenge. So she went out shopping and came back with some mystery bags of tea.

It is always a little stressful when we do these blind tasting challenges and some people have asked if we do not show any instances when we have messed up. The answer is NO and this video confirms it for you.

SPOILER ALERT: If you follow the brews as they are being poured then actually Celine got the answer right but we did not realise until an eagle eyed YouTube viewer pointed it out to us in the comments. So all of you doubters have a little bit of proof that these tasting challenges are real and we will upload whatever our answer.
