STeaP http://a.images.blip.tv/STeaP-300x300_show_image915.jpg STeaP stands for SuperTeaPeople, and aims to provide entertainment, education, and insightful content about all things tea.

All too often, I find someone who is interested in tea or already loves tea , and upon giving them a sample of loose leaf tea from my massive tea collection, I get this blank stare that clearly says I have NO idea what to do with this. Leaving typical teabags behind can seem daunting from the outside, but it's much simpler than it looks, and very worth the transition, so this episode if for anyone who wants to know more about the basics of making loose leaf tea. If you're already an expert and you receive that same blank stare from your friends and co-workers, share this video with the people who might benefit from a (hopefully) straightforward crash course on the basics. Keep in mind that this is simply the talk that I typically give to a tea novice, and the advice is based largely on my own opinion and my own experiences. It's also simplified for a tea beginner, and I sincerely apologize for the glare on my glasses, but it went so well on the first take that I simply balked at the idea of filming it again with better aligned lighting. This will have to do. :) Host - Brandice For further talk of tea and further advice on that tastiest beverages, please visit STeaPtv.com and browse our past episodes, or interact with other fans at our tea-chatty STeaP community. http://a.images.blip.tv/STeaP-STeaP65IntroToLooseLeaf974-162-864.jpg Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 If you are a loose leaf tea veteran, this week's show is probably not for you, because it is a very basic introduction to loose leaf tea, something that I've wanted to sit down and do for some time.

This is produced by the Meghma Tea Estate and is quite different than most any other Oolong you'll find on the market.Next up is auraTeas' Formosa Mingjian Retro Oolong, a simple Oolong and not as complex, or expensive, as the other Oolongs we've had from auraTeas. Will it stand up to the STeaP taste test?For photos from this episode, visit our Flickr pool, and for more episodes and other tea tidbits, visit STeaPtv.com.

We bring you a very green tea today, in the event that you're looking for something other than (or in addition to) green beer today. O-Cha.com Green Tea has generously shipped us some very high quality teas, including our choice for today, the Uji Matcha Kiri no Mori. They also included very helpful and specific instructions for properly preparing matcha, which can be found on their website. I also (Brandice) made a promise to discover whether the two types of matcha (usucha and koicha) are different by preparation or are actually different tea leaves. I very quickly found the answer here, which is that the usucha is a thinner tea with much more astringency than the koicha, which is why it's made with fewer scoops of matcha. The koicha is thicker, milder, and is made from much older leaves (often at least thirty years old). The tea that we're trying in this episode is a usucha. http://a.images.blip.tv/STeaP-STeaPEpisode27StPatricksDayMatchaMaking185-12.jpg Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 2.0 Happy St. Patrick's Day, tea drinkers!

The eight contestants? teas are tested and a winner is chosen! There were no losers, since all eight contestants will be receiving free teas, but there was definitely one tea that came out on top. Filming took about five hours total, so you may notice a bit of caffeine-induced hysteria and what may have been a case of caffeine hangover by the time we had sipped our way through eight cups of tea. The Disembodied Voice (Amy) joined us for this episode as a third official judge of the eight teas. Each of us drank each tea and gave them each a score between 1 and 10. The tea?s three judges? scores were added together to give the tea its final score, with the highest final score being the winning tea. We also announced each judge?s favorite (i.e. highest scored) tea. If you were one of our eight contestants, you can expect an email from us in the very near future so that we can obtain mailing addresses for each of you and get your pick for your free tea. We?re emailing each contestant one at a time, in order of highest to lowest Showdown scores (the highest score getting first pick of the free tea). This has been a really successful event for STeaP, and we look forward to bringing you more contests and promotions throughout 2008! We have also received samples from several tea companies that we will be featuring soon, so watch for more opportunities to win tea goodies and learn more about what some of the smaller tea companies have to offer. http://a.images.blip.tv/STeaP-STeaP17TeaShowdown2008487-300-714.jpg Creative Commons Attribution 2.0 This is it!
