A memorable green tea
Tea from Laos
Made from the leaves of ancient tea bushes, this green tea is produced in the unspoilt province of Phongsaly, in northern Laos. Its lemon-yellow cup offers vegetal, milky and slightly iodized flavours reminiscent of early green vegetables. A tasty tea with a long finish.

Origin of ingredients
Phongsaly Saylom Green tea Factory
Terroir
Phongsaly Saylom Green tea Factory is located in the province of Phongsaly, in northern Laos. The region is characterized by its mountainous landscapes and dense forests. Steep slopes give way to deep valleys with a wide range of altitudes up to 2,000 meters. The province enjoys a tropical monsoon climate. Rainfall during the wet season supplies Phongsaly with water for irrigation. During the dry season, the hydrographic network of rivers, such as the Nam Ou, ensures the irrigation function while playing an important role in the local life of the villages bordering the waterways. The region's extensive rainforests are mainly found in slightly acidic, humus-rich soils, and are home to a wide variety of plant and animal species. Endemic species such as gibbons, langurs, elephants and various birds and reptiles inhabit the region, benefiting from government conservation efforts.
Community projects
Since 1994, the Phongsaly authorities have been encouraging agricultural conversion to tea, in collaboration with the region's local communities. Fairtrade certified, over 980 producers benefit from the fair trade premium. These funds enable them to improve village infrastructure by subsidizing medical, administrative and educational services.
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.
Original 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.
Tea and food pairings
This mild yet intense green tea can be paired with shellfish, fried vegetables or a yellow fruit dessert to enhance the sweet flavors.
