I remember the bacon guy got a wrong answer because of the turkey bacon which is not real bacon, and now this guy got a wrong answer because herbal tea is not really from tea leaves.

Whenever he says tea B, I automatically think of tuberculosis

I feel like everytime an expert gets excited for guessing correctly, it's also a small celebration that their reputation as an expert will be intact after this video

I can never get over how beautiful the backdrops are for these videos. Someone definitely puts a lot of time and effort into them. They’re so beautiful 😍

I wish they would tell you the different brands they’re trying. I love when they say the cheap one is almost/just as good, and I want to know what it is!

I am Chinese who has been drinking tea for 20 years (Since primary school). The way he tastes green is absolutely right. For high quality green tea, proper temp (80 to 85 C) is vital. You should be able to get 3 times refill with the same good green tea leafs in your cup and some hot water in decent temp. For 乌龙 or OLONG and black tea, you should use literately boiling water. Sometimes you may cook your tea leafs. As for tea with flowers... Think about someone make cocktail with wine. Will they use a 100$ bottle for that?

I would be GOOPED if you could get a Water Expert and try to drink different kinds of water - tap, mineral, purified, distilled, and even alkanized! That would be awesome.

The herbal tea comparison was the hardest test I’ve seen to date...identical bags, almost identical leaf structure. Gotta give it to the guy!
