The tradition of one people: Kirat oolong 🫖🌱🇳🇵 The craft behind the cup, the people behind the craft, and the deeper appreciation that comes from knowing what actually goes into a fine cuppa! This is the kind of journey I love sharing through my International Tea Sommelier Diploma Course – Professional Level I, created in collaboration with International Tea Academy in Kunming, China, since 2016. Welcome to read more in today´s blog post! 👏🏻👀😊👇🏻

Not all tea is created equal. Every cup of specialty tea reflects the people, the landscape, and generations of knowledge that have refined and mastered the skills necessary to transform these mighty leaves into something truly extraordinary.

India’s tea landscape spans dramatically different terroirs and elevations. From the misty, subtropical Himalayas to the humid tropical plains. These differences in climate shape not just flavor but also the type of tea that is produced. Some regions focus on rare, high-end orthodox teas; others are built around large-scale CTC production for everyday drinking. India is colourful also in the area of tea!
