Choosing tea is like choosing wine; with more experience you’ll understand how to choose tea. First, you have to observe the tea. Are the leaves neat and tidy? How is the fragrance and taste? How is the physical appearance? After brewing the tea, the most important aspect is the fragrance and taste.
