A matrix of ninety‐five different teas was assigned brightness and colour scores by tea tasters, and the reflectance characteristics of the milked tea liquors were measured on an Agtron colorimeter. Computer analysis of the results, using linear multiple regressions, gave good correlations between the tea tasters' scores and the colorimeter readings.
