We are doing a blind tasting event with three of our high mountain oolongs. Basically, I will be sending out small samples (16 grams) of three different high mountain growing regions' teas (Alishan, Shan Lin Xi, and Hehuan Shan) without disclosing the names.
The price for the three teas is $10. You can find the sampler on our website https://floatingleaves.com/ on the banner that is currently on our homepage.
The sampler is available now, and will be available through Thursday the 6th at 6 PM PST. We will give you a couple weeks to drink them, and then reveal what each tea was on the 18th of June. We'll do a live broadcast on Facebook and Instagram, and I'll also come here and announce the names of the teas on this thread later that day. It will actually be double blind, Sara (who helps us pack tea) is the only one who knows which is which right now. So Shiuwen and I will find out about the same time as everybody else.
My goal with this event is to get conversation going in the tea community and give people the experience of tasting teas blind without too much preconceived notions. I'd love to see people post their favorite tea and guesses about which is which on this thread, Instagram or other outlets. If you have tea friends that you think would have fun with it, let them know too. Every time I do blind tastings, even though I have had the teas before, I usually get it pretty wrong
It should be super fun!Let me know if you have any questions, and I look forward to sharing tea with you!
