More About This Virtual Event

Join this experience with your favorite cup of tea brewed to enjoy during the class. We will start off the experience by learning more about what tea is, how tea plants are grown, how it's produced and the harvesting and production methods ranging from Pai Mu Tan white tea, Oolong, Pu'erh and more! We will then shift our focus to how to brew the perfect cup of tea in the comfort of your home and discuss any tea myths and misconceptions around "the perfect cup of tea". From there, we will discuss how to become a better tea taster and learn about our palate and tasting notes in tea.

At this point, I'll walk us through a virtual tea tasting, which you can follow along at home using your own tea! You will learn how to "sip tea like a Tea Sommelier" as well as tips and tricks on how best to enjoy tea. We will discuss tasting notes and the complexities that each cup of tea holds.

We will end the session with an opportunity for any questions and to share with each other what tea we are drinking! This class is best viewed using a laptop or computer.

HOSTED BY

Katie Cyr

Hi! My name is Katie and I'm a Certified Tea Sommelier and owner of The Monarch Tea Co. in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada!

Over the past nine years, I've traveled Ontario sharing with others the art, history, and culture of tea! As a certified Tea Sommelier through the Tea Board of Canada, I've taught everything about tea, with an emphasis on tea & food pairings. Tea & cheese, tea & chocolate, and even tea cocktails are some of my favorite subjects to share with others. Our virtual interactive workshops have been taught worldwide and have helped guests discover more about the world's most popular beverage (second only to water!). I'm excited to lead you through an interactive tea tasting with a focus on how to expand your palate!
