Traditional tea tasting is purely an art.

It's commercial application is very much doubtful as the valuation has no scientific back ground.
The tea taster has no standard other than to believe his own feel of taste. His feel could never be a standard and agreeable or understandable to all.

The tea taster tastes a number of cups of tea at a time and gets almost confused before writing the destiny of the teas in the array. This is an art like dancing and you can enjoy the imbalance in a dancing program with a humor. You can laugh a while and live at the occasion there.

Judging with a favor

Tea taster is biased and gives always a favorable report on the teas from popular estates. The tea value is written on the basis of the name, fame and popularity of the estate and it is not a true value.

You can see the slide,
where the art of tea tasting starts
with a lovely note
ends in a confusion.


In a traditional tea tasting method you cannot expect a good valuation.
