Tea
“TERMS FOR DESCRIBING BREWED TEA Aroma. This term refers to the way brewed tea smells.
Body. How the liquid feels on the tongue. This could be wispy, light, medium, or full. A full-bodied black tea such as Keemun lingers on the tongue, while a delicate white such as Silver Needles is wispy, seeming to evaporate immediately.
Brassy. A strong taste, usually a little bitter. This happens when leaves for processing black tea have not been withered long enough.
Brisk. Pleasing, slightly t...angy.
Burnt. Burnt tea tastes a little like burnt toast. Caused by over firing, this is not a desirable characteristic.
Coarse. Coarse tea has a decidedly acidic taste, also a little bitter.
Crisp. Disappears quickly on the tongue; a desirable quality.
Earthy. An earthy taste is a little moldy, which may be caused by improper firing.
