A "thé de garde" to discover
Spring freshness from Wa Mountain
This vintage pu'er cru galette was made to celebrate our 25th anniversary from a special selection of spring leaves (2018 harvest) from ancient Lincang tea bushes. Its youthfulness gives it fruity, sweet notes with a long finish, reminiscent of apricot. Under the right fermentation conditions, it will slowly evolve towards the tertiary aromas typical of old pu'er teas. A collector's item!
Tea composition
- Compressed Pu'er* tea.
*Organically grown.
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.
Ancient and wild tea bushes
We offer teas from Vietnam, Laos and Yunnan that come from ancient, wild tea bushes, rich in active ingredients and antioxidants. This variety still grows in the dense tropical forests of the Golden Triangle mountains, and its promotion prevents deforestation in this region, and enables local minorities to survive.
Grand Cru Tea
Because we have always chosen teas of excellence produced by long-standing partners, we have a few rarities that gourmets will appreciate. Harvested green teas from Japan, black teas from Darjeeling, spring teas from China, vintage pu'er or carefully hand-braided teas, organic teas of incomparable finesse for memorable tastings.
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.
Food & Tea
This raw puer goes well with slightly bitter vegetables such as asparagus, spinach or artichokes. It can also be paired with dried fruit desserts such as peanuts or apricots, which can also be eaten as is, as is often done in China, at the end of a traditional tasting.

Il se bonifie avec l'age. Superbe goût d'abricot

Ce thé n'est pas facile à réussir- il fait plusieurs essais avant de trouver la bonne température et temps, autrement il devient amer. Mais une fois les paramètres réglés, il est remarquable par sa note d'abricot très présente en bouche et à l'odorat. Je l'achète désormais pour la 3eme fois. Un vrai bijou.
