Floral Tea: A Subtly Poetic and Aromatic Beverage
Within the world of flavored teas, floral tea stands out as a favorite infusion among the most discerning tea connoisseurs. Combining fresh flowers with leaves of Camellia sinensis—the plant from which all tea varieties are derived—has been a tradition in China for centuries. Known as "huacha," these floral teas, with jasmine tea being the most iconic, offer a unique experience. The tea leaves absorb the surrounding fragrances during the drying process, blending beautifully with flowers, fruits, and spices, which explains the global popularity of flavored teas. With jasmine tea leading the way, floral teas are perfect for every occasion and every desire. While black floral teas pair wonderfully with a square of chocolate, floral green teas complement fruity desserts perfectly, from apple tarts in winter to berry mousses in summer. Our floral teas will accompany you through all your most delightful moments of indulgence.
