This professional tea tasting set is a key instrument and a must have for every good tea taster. It offers the possibility to infuse different teas under always the same conditions and to evaluate their optic and taste. To do this, loose tea is placed in the cup and poured over with hot water. Then the tea steeps with the lid closed. After the brewing process, the closed cup is placed in the bowl, at an angle that allows the tea to flow through the grooves on the rim of the cup. The tea leaves remain in the cup. Afterwards turn the cup over to open the lid. This allows an ideal examination of the tea leafs on the inner surface of the lid.
