Tea Management : Institutes
There are a number of Institutes providing training in Tea management.
Most of the courses are of short period. Eligibility requirement is
graduation and interest in the specified area. These institutes teach tea production to processing,
finance, marketing and sales where tea tasting forms part of the curriculum.
Although some experts believe that tea tasting need natural talent and
cannot be taught in any institute, tea tasters have to trained either
on the job / or in an institute to detect tea quality by looking at the
brightness (blackish or brownish), colour (like coppery or bright red),
strength and body of the tea. They should be able to tell between a mellow
cup and a brisk cup, able to distinguish tea from each specific region
from their flavour, be able to sniff a smoke tint in the tea, and examine
the evenness, colour or brightness of dry / infused leafs to know the
strength and body of the tea. They have to be trained to make their palates
proficient enough to register even the minute differences.
