Guided Tea Tasting
Jokai Fearless Tea’s Aditya Shah, a tea-taster, planter and entrepreneur, will conduct this specially curated tea-tasting workshop. The first part of the workshop will be a traditional tea tasting class, comprising the many varieties and grades of tea that Jokai grows, harvests and sources. Aditya will take everyone through a detailed class on how to discern good quality tea, what a dry leaf tells you, how to brew each kind of tea, and especially how to read the nuances in flavours in tea. For the second part, the audience will be divided into groups of 8-10 and then have a DIY Tea-Blending competition where they will be provided with base teas and various other botanicals like herbs, spices, florals etc., to mix and curate a completely new, unique blend that will be judged a jury.
