Learn how to taste the six floral and fruit green teas in this sampler pack, from setup and brewing to comparing each blend and picking a favorite.
Quick answer
Treat the six 10-gram blends as a guided tasting: brew each one lightly, taste them side by side, and note the floral and fruit differences before you decide which to repurchase. Start with the lightest-looking leaf and work toward the most aromatic.
Why a side-by-side tasting beats brewing one blend at a time
Green tea flavors are subtle, and floral and fruit notes are easiest to notice when you compare them directly. Brewing all six blends in one sitting lets you taste the difference between a delicate floral cup and a fruit-forward one without relying on memory.
The sampler’s 10-gram pouches are small, so plan your tasting around short sessions. You can taste three blends at a time and save the rest for a second session if you prefer not to brew all six at once.
What the sampler does and does not tell you
This collection gives you a broad introduction to floral and fruit green teas, but it is not a brewing guide. The catalog does not list specific water temperatures or steep times for each blend, so you will need to adjust based on taste. Start with cooler water and short steeps, then increase if the cup tastes thin.
Because the blends are pre-portioned, you cannot customize the mix. If you already know you dislike a certain floral or fruit profile, a sampler is still useful for confirming that preference, but expect to encounter at least one blend outside your comfort zone.
Step-by-step tasting walkthrough
- Set up a clean tasting station: Arrange six small cups or bowls in a row, one for each blend. Put a teaspoon, a timer, and a notebook within reach. Rinse the cups with hot water so they are warm but clean. Common mistake: using scented soap or a strongly flavored dish soap on the cups. Residual aroma will mask the tea’s floral notes.
- Open one pouch at a time: Tear open only the pouch you are about to brew. Smell the dry leaf first and write down the first aroma that comes to mind. Reseal the pouch tightly after use. Checkpoint: if the dry leaf smells dusty or flat, the pouch may have absorbed moisture. Use it first and note the difference.
- Brew lightly for the first infusion: Use about 2 grams of leaf (roughly one heaped teaspoon) per 150 ml of water. Start with water that is hot but not boiling—around 80°C (175°F)—and steep for 1 to 2 minutes. Taste a small sip, then adjust the next blend if needed. Common mistake: pouring fully boiling water directly onto green tea. Let the kettle rest for a minute after boiling.
- Taste in a consistent order: Sip each blend in the same sequence—lightest liquor color first, darkest last—and note floral versus fruit impressions. Rinse your mouth with plain water between cups so the flavors do not pile up. Checkpoint: if you cannot tell two blends apart, re-taste them side by side rather than moving on.
- Record a simple flavor note for each blend: For each cup, write one word for aroma, one for taste, and one for finish. Use plain language like “jasmine-like,” “citrusy,” or “grassy” rather than trying to match a professional tasting vocabulary. Common mistake: writing only “good” or “bad.” Specific words help you choose a favorite later.
- Try a second, shorter infusion: Re-steep the same leaves with fresh hot water for 30 to 60 seconds. Compare the second cup with the first and note whether the floral or fruit character fades or deepens. Checkpoint: if the second infusion turns bitter, shorten the steep time or lower the water temperature next time.
- Rank the blends and plan your next step: After tasting all six, rank them from most to least favorite. Note which flavor profile you preferred—floral, fruity, or a balance—and use that to decide which full-size tea to buy next. Common mistake: deciding too quickly after one sip. Give each blend a few minutes to cool slightly; the flavor often changes.
