About this Event
China produces tea in 19 of its 33 provinces and continues to lead the world in tea production. Tea culture, terroir, and techique have combined there over millennia to produce many of the finest and most varied teas choices in the world. In this session, we'll explore some of China's best teas, take a look at the culture, terroir, and technique contributing to their quality, and learn how to maximize flavor as we taste a variety of tea types: white, yellow, green, oolong, black, and dark/Pu'er. This session will include a sharing of pictures and videos from David's recent trips to China and a sample pack to enjoy at home afterwards!
