Core 05: Flavor Wheel of Taiwan Specialty Tea

About Course

This course introduces students to the Flavor Wheel of Taiwan Specialty Tea—a structured sensory map that helps tasters identify, describe, and communicate the complex aromas and flavors found in Taiwan’s iconic teas. Through guided sensory practice and comparative tastings, students learn how to use professional flavor vocabulary, how flavor wheels are organized, and how to apply these tools to evaluate teas such as high-mountain oolongs, Oriental Beauty, Red Oolong, Black Tea, and more. This course strengthens tasting accuracy, memory, and descriptive confidence.

By the end of the course, students will be able to:
Understand the structure and categories of the Taiwan Specialty Tea Flavor Wheel.
Identify primary, secondary, and tertiary aroma notes commonly found in Taiwanese teas.
Compare flavor profiles across cultivars, terroirs, and processing styles.
Professionally describe tea using standardized sensory vocabulary.
