Savoring Tea is an elegant way of life, and from a professional perspective, it can be considered a skill. Put simply, it's about whether one knows how to truly appreciate tea.

So sometimes people talk about “tea IQ,” which refers to someone's intuitive understanding of tea. This includes the ability to savor and identify teas, knowledge of tea Etiquette, and achieving a higher state of appreciation.

Many people judge the quality of tea based on their taste and experience. Some believe that what suits their palate is best, disregarding other factors.

Others rely on recommendations from others when choosing their preferred tea. Regardless of the method, it indicates our recognition of the tea's quality.

When savoring tea, we naturally approach it with sincerity. Sitting quietly with a Cup of tea, setting aside complex emotions, and focusing entirely on the act of tasting brings a sense of peacefulness.

If you enjoy meditation, Drinking Tea is even more fitting. Meditation is about emptying your mind and having a dialogue with yourself, returning to your true self. Drinking tea is about engaging in conversation with the leaves, reconnecting with nature.

The joy of truly understanding a tea and then eagerly sharing it with friends, introducing its unique flavors and aromas, discussing its origin and the age of the trees, is akin to introducing a dear friend to someone else.

People often say that once you've been drinking a particular tea for a long time, you don't want to change. This refers to the trust and reliance tea drinkers have in their chosen tea. Making friends is easy, but finding a true soulmate is rare; thus, cherished flavors should be treasured.

Over time, tea can surprise tea drinkers with its evolution. As the saying goes, “like parent, like child,” there are natural laws at play when storing tea.

For example, if two people store the same batch of tea, after ten years, differences in storage conditions could lead to different transformations. Naturally, the person who understands the tea better will take greater care, resulting in better flavor.

Understanding tea means cherishing it, and in turn, the tea evolves in the direction the tea drinker hopes for.

The depth of the bond between a tea drinker and their tea can be measured by the moment they reunite after many years, discernible in the very first sip.
