First, the tea matchmaker pinpoints feelings like hunger, happiness or stressed that a tea blend will be able to help with. From there, the Tea Matchmaker lays out a few flavor profiles like citrus, nutty/earthy and spicy/savory in order to further narrow down the choices. The last step before viewing a selection of teas is to choose a desired energy boost on a scale of zero to "S" for stimulant.
