Plain tea
White, green, black and dark teas from China, India, Japan and elsewhere are all varieties from the same plant: the tea plant. Once plucked, the leaf is processed in different ways, undergoing numerous transformations. Depending on the terroir, the fineness of the leaf and the way it is processed, the result is an unlimited palette of tastes and vintages.
The agriculture moment
Biodynamics is a global, holistic approach to agriculture. It takes into account all living things and aims to stimulate their vital forces. The three main principles of the Demeter philosophy are: the agricultural organism, biodynamic preparations and cosmic rhythms.
Tea and food pairings
This great classic is a perfect accompaniment to "French breakfasts": viennoiseries, toast with jam or crêpes, as well as savoury breakfasts: scrambled eggs, bacon, sausages... For a gourmet break, it will also enhance a dark chocolate with character, plain or with candied oranges and/or nuts.
