TEA BLENDING. AN eminent Tea Expert, writing in the "Tea and Coil'eo Trade Journal, says :—"Tea blending is a scientific art and the acme of the art is to ' lift' blends up, 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 ' fine liquoring,' not a medium cup. The great secret is to | select for your 'fetching up' grade a tea i thatf can dominate the ' blend. For | this, great experience and a highly trained palate are essential. No hard | nd fa3t rules can be laid down, but there is a great prize to be gained by the succeseful individual who by his. skill can make, for two or three pence a pound less money, a blend that shall e.mal the more expensive one of the inexpert blonder." In New Zealand expert tea blenders are few and far between, and whila there 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 flavour under such conditions Is impossible, and purity problematical. There is one firm in New Zealand who have for 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 impoiting capabilities, these tpas 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'* 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 Now Zt-a-lane are, on the wholo, 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, Is 6d, Is Bd, Is lOd, and 2s per lb, That at Is 8d per lb is the most favoured at present, ft 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 compelled to buy a low-priced tea will get the best value for their money, both in quality and flavour, if [they buy the low-priced " Tiger" blends.—('.).
