Guided tasting experience containing three batches (40g total) of delicious Anji Bai Cha sourced in 2023. All of the batches are excellent (no duds) and include some of our Jade Arrow Supreme (the highest grade Anji Bai Cha to our tastes).
This is a great opportunity to educate your palate on the nuances between different areas and cultivars of this famous Chinese Green.
The kit contains three numbered pouches of Anji Bai Cha tea and a letter to guide you through the blind tasting.
We will explain the overall differences between the different batches and give you the opportunity to blind taste them to experience the variations in character and try to guess which one is which.
The three teas are all from Anji but produced by different tea makers and with slight variations in cultivar. This kit gives an experiential insight into the changes that the producer's decisions have on the finished tea.
The letter then reveals the identity of the teas and gives you my personal thoughts about their nuances. The kit contains enough tea for about 3-4 horizontal tasting sessions, so you can repeat the experience and share this learning with friends.
This is a rare and fun opportunity to get a glimpse of the Mei Leaf selection process and level-up your palate in Anji Bai Cha.
We advise brewing all three teas at the same time for a comparative tasting and recommend grabbing three Gong Fu Solo's if you do not have enough teaware.
