As the tea sommelier for Shangri-La Hotel, Toronto, Sheena Brady understands that serving tea to welcome guests is a gesture and sign of respect that dates back thousands of years. To ensure each cup of tea is at its best, Sheena tastes the teas daily as the leaves, like all natural products, can vary by season and storage conditions. Her interpretation of the tea-drinking culture extends to working with the hotel’s bartenders and culinary team to concoct tea-infused beverages and cocktails and tea-infused pastries from the hotel’s 75 premium teas.
