When Gary, Kevin and Jesse get together to taste tea and wine the result is an interesting mix of humor, intelligent discourse, and fascinating instruction. The trio met up at Jesse’s, Samovar Tea, to taste tea, wine and share their passions about each. The below video is nearly 80 minutes long, but is filled with excellent information. There are lengthy discussions about tasting wine and the similarities when it comes to tasting tea. Gary, in his usual laid-back style, makes it accessible and understandable. Jesse and Kevin bring a great combination of personal and professional knowledge about tea, tea brewing and tea cultures.
Grab a cup of tea, sit back and enjoy as these three men take us through the internet’s first combined tea and wine tasting!

My favorite part of this video is when Gary shoves $60 worth of tea leaves into his mouth! Great stuff. Gary is always fun to watch!
Thank you for putting this up. Got me pondering so hard, I had to blog about my thoughts on it.
I don't use filtered water at all for my tea, because I've always thought the water in Munich was so good, but I'm really considering tasting the difference between filtered and unfiltered water for my tea.
