Did You Miss The Tea Tasting Class at Teagschwendner Last Week?




If so, you will have another chance to attend our tea tasting class Thursday night, May 20 at 7:00 featuring China Oolong Kwai Flower and Formosa Fancy Superior Choice plus four other special Oolongs. This will be a very special event held at the TeaGschwendner shop in Cameron Village, Raleigh, North Carolina. In addition to the teas, Mistii, a new company from Durham will be pairing their new Peruvian shortbreads with the appropriate teas. Attendees will be given a 10% discount on their tea purchases and consultants will be available to assist everyone with their selections. Space is limited so please call or email to reserve a seat. If you cannot attend but you would like to learn about fine teas, the focus of this week's blog will be Oolongs, the culture and history that created the teas, the process of creating an high quality Oolong, and the characteristics of a fine tea. Teas covered this week will be Sumatra Oolong Barison, Kwai Flower Oolong, China Fancy Oolong, Formosa Fancy Oolong Ming Xiang, Formosa Fancy Superior Choice Oolong, and Formosa Fancy Superior Oolong Taifu.
Quick Mini-Lesson...tear open a tea bag then place a spoonful of a fine loose leaf tea beside the bag tea...which one actually looks like tea...remember TeaGschwendner tests their teas in a laboratory for metals and pesticides.
