Principles of the tea combination:

Tea blending is an art that requires understanding the flavors of different teas and then identifying foods that enhance and/or complement them. The precise brewing of the BRU 'Maker One' tea maker brings out the true essence of tea through consistently perfect brewing time and temperature, providing the basis for exciting combinations.

 

Combine subtle teas with light dishes:

For delicate teas such as white or green teas, choose foods that tend to be light and not overpowering:

 

🌱 White tea: Fresh fruit, light pastries or mild cheeses ideally complement the floral sweetness of white tea.

 

🍃 Green tea: Sushi, steamed vegetables and light salads harmonize with the grassy notes of green tea. Stimulate your palate and enjoy the synergy.

 

Combine strong teas with hearty dishes:

Full-bodied teas such as black or oolong tea harmonize well with stronger flavours:

 

🍪 Black tea: Scones, chocolate desserts or spiced cakes go well with the deeper, malty notes of black tea.

 

🍲 Oolong tea: Roasted meat, wok dishes or grilled vegetables bring out the complex, floral notes of oolong tea.

 

Create sweet and savory contrasts:

Contrasting flavors can create culinary tension:

 

🍵 Herbal tea: Combine fruity herbal teas with spicy Indian or Mexican cuisine. The sweetness softens the spiciness and creates an exciting contrast.

 

Surprise with unexpected combinations:

 

🍵 Matcha: Try matcha cake or matcha ice cream! The creamy sweetness complements the unique umami taste of matcha.

 

Conclusion: Tea pairing is an art that goes beyond tea alone. It's about finding harmony between tea and other foods. The precise brewing of the BRU 'Maker One' allows you to get the best out of your tea and easily try out different brewing settings and flavor combinations. Whether you prefer delicate white teas, strong black teas or your own homemade tea blend - endless flavor possibilities await you.
