Culinary Pairing Set – Tea for Cookies

If you, like some of us, enjoy your afternoons with a tea-and-snack break, consider this set to accompany sweets. To go along with a slice of cake or a buttery biscuit, a tea has to not only have something to complement the richness, but flavors that will synergize with it. The acidity of Qing Xiang Tieguanyin cuts through, the florality of Xingren Xiang rises above, and the malty backbone of Jinguanyin Hong Cha balances out sweetness, making a whole that is much more than the sum of its tasty parts. Enjoy on your next tea break, and hey, if there are crumbly leaf leftovers at the bottom of your pouch, we hear this tea dust is fantastic folded into homemade shortbread.
