AROMAS AND MOOD, TASTING AND SEASON, TIME AND FLAVOURS, THE FINEST TEAS IN THE WORLD HAVE NO REAL VALUE IF THEY ARE NOT TO YOUR TASTE.

Full-bodied, light, smoky or scented… there is a tea for each time of day and night. It is up to you to take your choice, depending on the tasting time and your mood.

Breakfast

Do you like tea without milk? Then opt for a full-bodied blend such as Breakfast Royal. Unless you prefer a lighter tea such as Darjeeling.
Enthusiasts for a drop of milk, preferably choose an Assam teas such as Greenwood for its lively character.

Tarry Souchong

For those who indulge themselves in hearty breakfasts, with eggs, cheese or delicatessen, we recommend a China tea that can be more or less smoky, depending on everyone’s taste, such as Tarry Souchong for example.
If you get a brunch ready as a family or friends party (a late breakfast that is almost a meal) you will only have to offer several teas in order to be in harmony with everyone’s taste.

Tea time

Tea time offers the most gourmand choice: except for the strongest ones, any tea will be nice at this specific time of day. With pastries or biscuits, some will prefer a Darjeeling or a Ceylon O.P, whereas others will decide in favour of a flavoured tea with citrusy or fruity tones such as Blue Mountain...

And for those who wish a typical Indian tea-break, just add an organic slice of orange in your tea. Unlike lemon that ruins the taste of tea, orange enhances its flavour, as our bitter-orange flavoured China tea attests it.

Blue Mountain

Evening

What about a cup of light tea after dinner?
A Formosa Grand Oolong or a flavoured tea such as Bagatelle Bagatelle will delicately be enjoyed in your late evening.

Privileged times

Indeed teas are like vintage wines: all along the year they offer themselves to you and know how to be enjoyed in various ways depending on seasons.
So Christmas Tea warms the Christmas period with its caramel, orange and maraschino flavours, whereas Spring Blend is an ideal tea to be consumed in the sweetest summer times.

Jour de fête

How about « Une journée à la campagne » (a tea with sweet orange flavours), « Parlez-moi d’amour » (raspberry, jasmine, orange and ylang-ylang) or « Jour de Fête » (a worthy of its name blend of fruit, flowers and spices)...
There are as many teas, as there are invitations, and times to savour.
