Step 01
Tea Brief
We begin with the buyer's sourcing requirement.

Sourcing Situation
- Current origin

- Second-source requirement
Current supplier information may be shared only when useful. It is not a mandatory part of the brief.
Step 02
Tea Matching
One Brief. Up to Three Samples.
We do not mechanically provide three samples. If one tea is the right match, we recommend one.
Precision over quantity.
Step 03
Sample
Samples can be coded for clear reference and evaluated against a consistent set of buyer-facing criteria.
- Aroma
- Strength
- Liquor colour
- Astringency
- Sweetness
- Mouthfeel
- Comparison with current tea
- Price acceptance
Step 04
Feedback
Structured feedback gives the next recommendation direction. We use it to adjust the tea, grade, taste direction or price level.
Tea / Grade / Taste / Price
