A Christmas tea tasting can turn a gift pack into a shared occasion. K&M’s Christmas selection offers nine named teas, but you do not need to try every one in a single sitting.

Choose a small first selection
Start with a few ingredients that interest the group. Keeping the selection manageable makes the names and impressions easier to remember. Keep each tea’s label beside its cup so a pale or dark drink does not become the only way of identifying it.
Prepare each tea by its own instructions
Different products may have different preparation details. Use the information supplied with the tea instead of inventing one brewing rule for the entire pack. If you compare cups, record the tea name and any additions so the tasting notes remain useful afterwards.
Talk about flavour in ordinary words
Describe the aroma, the first impression and the finish. People may notice different things, and preferences can differ without anyone being wrong. The tasting is about enjoying and comparing drinks rather than assigning benefits to ingredients.
Save a return visit
With two bags of each listed tea in the Christmas Gift Pack, there is room to revisit an ingredient another time. A second cup can be a different occasion rather than another test. For background reading, share the free book link and our earlier tasting guide.
