Unit 1: Green and White Tea 
Unit 2: Black and Oolong Tea 

+ Self-study Unit on Botanicals & Herbals  

Building on the core learning of Tea Essentials, these units are tutor-led to provide greater depth of knowledge to the main tea categories and a guided, practical approach to brewing and tasting classic teas. 

As a qualified Tea Guide, you will be able to talk with confidence about specific teas, their origins, the general craft of processing from leaf to cup, the influence of terroir and varietal and how to get the best from the leaf through the Art of Tea Brewing. 

This unit includes three carefully chosen teas which we send to you to brew and taste with your tutor.

You start with the self-guided learning on green and white teas and then join a live 2hr tutorial with one of our UKTA tutors.  This is to guide you through the brewing techniques for two green teas and one white tea and share the tasting experience. 

Each tea has been chosen to illustrate the differences in production style, region, terroir and varietal. You can express your preferences and use this opportunity to ask questions from your expert tea tutor.
