Discovering Tea! A Tasting

Gwen Russell, Coffee Analysts

Discovering Tea is a hands-on, introductory-level tasting workshop that will introduce you to the many levels of tea tasting experience.

The workshop is hosted by Bijou Fine Chocolate and is co-sponsored by Coffee Analysts of Burlington who will be lending the talents of their professional Tea Specialist Gwen Russell. Join her as she shares a wide palette of world teas and teaches you how to enhance your tasting enjoyment and appreciation of this classic beverage.

Participants will walk away with a newfound ability to taste more in tea than ever before, a foundational knowledge of the many different types of teas, and an ability to discern subtle differences between tea varieties.

Designed for anyone interested in enhancing their enjoyment and appreciation of fine food, no experience is required and the series is open to the general public.

Crack open the door to a new world of culinary delight!
