Found an interesting article on tasting that I thought the group might
find interesting. The article is on wine, but of course there are
parallels:

I personally am often confounded by trying to describe the taste of a
particular tea, or trying to guess what a tea tastes like based on
someone else's description. The idea that people taste things
differently seems like common sense, but of course people want to
compare their experience to others. This seems like a promising way to
do so.
