TEA BLENDING.

AX eminent Tea Expert, writing in the ' "Tea and Cotfee Trade Journal,' j says : —"Tea blending is a scientific art j and theacmo of the art is to ' lift' blends ) up, not to depress thorn to a dull aver- I age. The expert will blend low-priced, ' medium, and fine quality teas in such a way as lo make a 'fine liquoring,' not a medium cup. The great' .secret is to | soleco tor your 'fetching up' grade a tea that can dominate the blend. . For this, great experience and a highly trained palate are essential. No hard and fast rules can be laid down, but there is a great prize to he gained by the succeseful individual who by his skill can make, for two or three pence a pound less money, a blend that shall eoual the more exi.ensire one cf the inexpert blender" v In New Zealand expert tea blenders are few and far between, and while theivs are many brands of blended teas on the market, few are the work of real experts. For the most part the teas are mixed in a haphazard kind of way, the main object being the obtaining of a maximum profit. Uniformity of quality or fiavouv under such conditions is impossible, and purity pTobiematical. ; There is one firm in New Zealand wlvo have fjr many years been selling the finest blended teas in Australasia. Blended by an expert of great experience and unique skill, who also has the great advantage of his firm's superior buying and imnoiting capabilities, these teas are undoubtedly very fine examples of the blender's art, and at the various prices at which they are sold they are undeniably the best value obtainable in the Dominion. We refer to "Tiger' - i Tea:-;. That they have for so many years I retained their supremacy and great J popularity in the face of increased competition is evidence of the public's critical abilities. The people of Now >« aI lane are, on the whole, good judges of i tea, and as " Tiger " 'Tea is stili the pick | of the great majority, nothing further i need be added, except that they are ob- ; tainable from all stores at Is 4d, Is Gd, jls Bd, Is lOd, and 2s per lb. That at Is I B<i per lb is the most lavouredat present. 1 It is a very lino tea, and those who can- | not aliord the higher priced "Tiger" I Teas find it quite as good as other brands |of tea at 2s a lb. Those, however, who | are compolled to buy a low-priced j tea will get the best, value for their I money, both in quality and flavour, if 'they bu<- tlio low-jricecl "Tiger" IjIOIK S>—(*■)•
