AN eminent Tea Expert, writing in the "Tea and Coffee Trade Journal, says :—"Tea blending is a scientific art and the acme of the art is to ' lift' blends np, not to depress them to a dull average. The expert will blend low-priced, medium, and fine quality teas in such a way as to make a ' line liquoring,' not a medium cup. The great secret is to select for your ' fetching up' grade a tea that can dominxte the blend. For this, great experience and a highly trained palate^are essential. No hard nd fa;t rules cm be laid down, but t>ere is a great prize to be gained by the succesoi'ul individual who by his skill can make, for two or three pence a pound less money, a blend that shall ecual the more expensive one of the inexpert blender."

In New Zealand expert tea blenaers are few and far betwoen, and whilo there are many brands of blended teas on the market, few are the work of real experts. For the most part the teas tiro mixed in a haphazard kind of way, the main object being the obtaining of a maximum profit. Uniformity of quality or flavour under such conditions is impossible, and purity problematical. There is one firm in New Zealand who have fjr many, years been selling the finest blended teas in Australasia. Wended by an expert of great experience and unique skill, who also has the great advantage of his firm's superior baying and importing capabilities, these tf as are undoubtedly very fine examples of the blender's art, and at tho various prices at which they aro sold they are undeniably the best value obtainable in the Dominion. We refer to "Tiger'" Teas. That they have for so many years retained their supremacy and great popularity in the face of increased competition is evidence of the public's critical abilities. The people of New Ze-a-!a:ie are, on the whole, good judges of tea, and as " Tiger " Tea is still the pick of the great majority, nothing further need be added, except that they are obtainable from all stores at Is 4d, \h 6d, Is Bd, Is lOd, and 2s per Ih. That at Is 8d per lb is the most favoured at present. It is a very fine tea, and those who cannot afford the higher pr'ced "Tiger" Teas find it quite as good as other brands of tea at 2s a lb. Those, however, who are compellod to buy a low-priced tea will get the best value for thi-ir money, both in quality and flavour, if they buy the I'jw-piic3il •' Tiger" blends.—('.).
