The Four Steps to Tasting Like a Sommelier
Behind the Blend
Every Forgrave blend is designed to be read the same way: aroma, color, body, and finish. It is the sequence Catherine uses to taste each blend she composes, a multisensory way of experiencing the tea that moves from first breath to last trace. Flavor lives inside body and finish, arriving on the palate at first sip and lingering long after.
Step One
Aroma
Breathe it in before the first sip. Aroma sets the expectation for what the palate is about to meet and often carries more of the tea than the tongue alone will register.
Jasmine strikes first and sharpest, softer rose and peach blossom follow through the heart, silver needle grounding the base.
Step Two
Color
Tilt the cup toward the light and study the liquor, the color of the brewed tea. Each tea has a distinct and expected hue, and its clarity is the first signal of a leaf steeped properly.
The lightest pour in the collection, exactly what white tea should look like.
Step Three
Body
Take a slow sip and let it rest across the whole palate. This is where flavor first arrives, alongside the weight and texture of the tea on the tongue.
Delicate, light, and silky, the softest body of any blend, jasmine and stone fruit floating over a grounded silver-needle base.
Step Four
Finish
Breathe out gently after you swallow and notice what lingers. Much of flavor is carried on the exhale as aroma returns through the nose, so the finish is where a tea reveals its final notes.
Jasmine gives way to silver needle, lingering in a grounded, gentle close.
