Workshop “Tea Sensory Skills” - online
This course is in Italian.
Learn the art of tea tasting as an essential tool for recognising aromas and flavours, assessing product quality and making more informed choices. Through guided tastings of different types of tea, you will learn to identify their differences and build an olfactory and flavour memory — an essential skill for navigating the world of tea, whether for personal interest or professional purposes.
The course will guide you step by step through the key criteria used to evaluate tea, helping you train your senses and refine your analytical skills.
The course is designed for:
• tea and beverage enthusiasts interested in developing their tasting skills
• baristas and food & beverage professionals who want to deepen their knowledge of tasting and preparation techniques in order to offer customers a high-quality experience
• anyone who would like to approach tea more consciously and discover new flavours
No previous experience is required: the entire tasting will be guided by Elisa.
