Flavoured tea
For Les Jardins de Gaïa, the addition of natural flavours is not intended to cover up the flavours of tea or plants, but rather to give them new subtleties, to bring out their organoleptic richness. Our recipes are the fruit of daily inspiration, guided by our curiosity, our passion for our craft and our desire to help you discover new flavours.
Organic farming
We have always offered organically grown teas and herbal teas, and used natural, organic flavours. We go even further, demanding that our suppliers use certified organic flavor carriers and solvents. Certified since 1994.
Fair trade
A WFTO (World Fair Trade Organization) certified member, Les Jardins de Gaïa has been committed to fair trade since its creation: from the tea leaf to the cup, all our practices meet fair trade requirements. To find out more: www.wfto.com.

Once prepared in a samovar, the bitterness of Russian tea was neutralized by citrus fruit... Today, flavoured recipes reproduce this highly sought-after taste.
Tea and food pairings
This "Russian taste" brings tangy, finely astringent flavours to many cakes, such as financiers, cakes and madeleines. Its flavours can also complement the caramelized notes of a Moreno, or complement a dark chocolate with orange.
