Join tea expert So-Han, special guest Moose from Andalusia Distilling, and Richard from Whiskey Provisioner for a fascinating discussion and tasting of artisanal rum and wild red tea from China. Moose shares his journey as a distiller and musician, and how he earned his unique nickname.
So-Han introduces the traditional Chinese tea ceremony, brewing a rare wild red tea from Sichuan using a special clay teapot reserved just for this tea type. He explains the six main varieties of tea and the remote origins of true tea.
Moose then presents his special 2-year barrel-aged rum made with a funky Jamaican process called "dunder" to maximize the distinct "hogo" flavors. The group samples this alongside Worthy Park 109 rum from Jamaica, comparing tasting notes of tropical fruits, maple, coconut and more.
The tea and rum pairings bring out surprising new flavors in each. Moose advises exploring the huge diversity in rum styles from various regions with an open mind.
Whether you're a connoisseur of rum, tea, or artisanal spirits and beverages, this is a unique chance to learn from passionate experts and expand your tasting horizons. Cheers!
