Here’s how to appreciate high-quality beverages:
Alcohol (wine, whiskey, etc.)
- Look: Observe color, clarity, legs (wine).
- Smell: Inhale the aroma before tasting.
- Taste: Sip slowly, savor the flavors, and note complexity and finish.
- Pair: Complement with food to enhance flavor.
Coffee

Tea
- Use quality loose-leaf tea.

- Flavor: Balanced, with distinct notes.
- Mouthfeel: Smooth, not harsh or overly astringent.
- Aftertaste: Pleasant and lingering.
