Hey Don,
I'm slightly new to your channel and after seeing a lot of your content, I decided to go to your shop in England all the way across the Atlantic! I bought a lot tea and tea equipment from your shop and brewed my first cold brew in Scotland. I still have yet to try one in my home in the States. Thank you so much for creating this channel! I currently am growing my own tea plant and have a slight obsession with tea, so it's wonderful to see that there are other people with such an interest in tea. Anyway, I love your content and I'll keep you updated on the plant and all that! Thank you!

Great, great video! My coffee shop is just starting to offer lose leaf tea and you used some great descriptive and technique.

This was very interesting. I will be cold brewing my green for summer from now on.

You forgot my favorite way. It is by sun brewing the tea in a glass container and setting it in the sun for- depends on the tea but like a fine Japanese tea it would be around 8 hrs.

Nice thing in Norway is the long summer sunlight so I have a longer time to play with the timing of my teas. Thanks again for the tutorial and the wonderful teas that you bring to use.





and setting ice in it to cool it off and enjoy.

Thank you for making this video! I made cold brewed tea last night, and I realized that I've been brewing my tea incorrectly for years. The cold-brewed tea tasted worlds better than what I had been making. My friend has a cocktail shaker, and we're going to try making flash brewed tea soon. Thank you again!!

"Where is the iced tea"
me: laughs in southern america. We just put 2 big cups of tea in our SWEET iced tea :)

I prefer cold brewing for green tea and white tea. For all other tea's I prefer flash chilled. The brighter notes in green and white just work really well with cold brew. I'm glad you mentioned the oxidation in the tea that was brewed hot and chilled overnight but you also have to be careful with cold brew that you have a container that seals well or you end up with the same effect.

Another method I really like is sun brewing. You can only use sun brewing with teas that have already been oxidized though because the UV from the sun oxidizes the tea as it brews. You can either drink the tea warm right out of the sun, iced, or put it in the fridge for later.

I came across your videos yesterday and i must have spent a good five to six hours watching your videos already. I bought a new cafe in Jordan and we are completely transforming the place and the drinks. I am travelling to London next month and will definitely pay you a visit at your store.

I have always been a coffee drinker, never liked tea, I always felt that tea tastes "weak and watered out" compared to coffee, was looking in to cold brew coffee when I stumbled in to this video, I really liked the video, so I thougt why not, so I made my first cold brew tea, I let it brew for 16 hours in the fridge, and wow, so much flavour, and low bitterness, I still dont like hot tea at all, but I love cold brew tea.

Hey Don, very interesting video! I have been binge watching your videos over the last couple of weeks and have learned so much! Thank you for making this channel, keep up the great work! :) I was just wondering. Would you be able to store the ice-shaken tea in the fridge overnight like the cold-brew one or would this impact the flavor in a negative way like it did the hot-brewed tea?
Also, a while ago I read a post from a person who brewed their tea by sprinkling the tea leaves over ice cubes and letting them slowly melt in the fridge. They said it produced an amazingly smooth and delicate taste. What is your opinion on this very time consuming method? :D Do you think it could be significantly different from the normal cold-brewing method?

[moshicloud]

Fukamushi is my favorite green tea. Need to try that with the ice cubes, looks delicious

[fwanz]

Your vids are very educational! Learning so much from you. Keep it up!

[Mindful_TEA_Break]

Nice video. Also worth mentioning is the method of brewing with ice cubes - just by putting ice cubes over the leaves and waiting for them to completely melt. Working well especially when brewing in small Gaiwan or Shiboridashi :)

[LiiLPANDA]

I always use method 2 ! ;) I want to try the one that has been shaked. :D

[bogamcs]

wonderful description of tea attributes, I enjoyed it a lot!

[garysmith]

I stated doing the cold brew tea after seeing this four years ago. I cannot thank you enough.

[TTBOnbKiLleR]

cold brewing is amazing, the winner for me

[Blackvegetabletheth]

I never tried the flash chilled tea :o until 5 minutes ago, but I also never tried cold brewed tea before I stumbled on this channel either. thanks for making me discover and experiment with teas :) for some reasons I just forgot about it for a while.

flash chilled tea was really good, even if I used tea bags (sorry...). Now I'm reusing the leftover tea to make cold brewed tea for a comparison.
also call me crazy but I feel like experimenting with cold brewed tea and white wine, it somehow feels like it may be a nice combo.

[chregig]

Just found your channel, put my first batch of cold brew in the fridge, so excited for tomorrow

[debbieann]

I tried Japanese quince tea once and really liked it.
