2013 World Tea Expo - Oriental Beauty

Oriental Beauty is a very popular session.  We had a full house of tea friends waiting to cup Oriental Beauty.  There were a total of four different teas made by different farmers, and there were two teas that are not made with Chinsing Dahpan cultivar.  Our goal is to encourage our tea friends to participate in advanced cupping.  Not only do you sip and taste the flavor, you must also check the dry leaf, focus on the aroma, carefully to define the flavor note, and "read" the wet leaves.  Afterwards, we had a few friends up to share their cupping logs.  Oh yes, the cupping logs are indeed essential for our tea cupping sessions, especially when you are dealing with these super expensive Oriental Beauty.
