Keeping a record of a tea season

Picking dates, processing batches and impressions in the cup help a community learn from its own season.

Useful lines in a harvest diary

In this illustrative story from Ban Lien, every day begins with observation. The sky, the mist and the softness of a bud shape the pace of work. A small batch is the result of connected decisions, from selecting a leaf to pouring the first cup.

A good cup begins with attention to the small things.

Explore with your own senses

Observe the cup in natural light, bring it closer to notice its aroma and take a small sip. Try another infusion and notice what has changed. Each person may find a different story in the same cup.
