I've just discovered the blog of the tea taster at a company called
teapigs.co.uk. She's currently in china on a tea tasting mission,
which is quite charming - Anyway, I'm not hear to promote them I was
actually wondering if anyone else knows of any blogs on tea tasters
and what they do all day - seems like the world's best job

The same thought occured to me too -- until I saw the history channel
program on tea, someone may be able to link it. Seeing a video
respresentation of what tea tasters do was actually rather depressing,
as the taster is rapidly inhaling than spitting tea in a repetitive
pattern, not sitting back and enjoying the tea, which is the image the
words 'tea taster' initially brings to mind.

I was reading Brent's blog ( http://teanerd.blogspot.com ) and read
that T Ching does online tea tastings. They send samples of select
teas to a number of registered tasters who agree to taste the teas and
post their notes online.

Also, I've been told (by Brent) that palatabiliTEA is a good blog,
although I have yet to read it.
