Tea preparation tips




Spring tea with umami flavor
This beautiful early harvest offers the "umami" flavours characteristic of green teas from the Uji region, the cradle of shaded teas and sencha in Japan. Its dense, full-bodied liquor develops succulent vegetal and sweet notes that are particularly long-lasting on the palate.

Early tea
Discover fresh, delicate teas bursting with spring flavors! Considered by some to be the quintessence of natural teas, primeurs are the fruit of the first Camellia sinensis leaf harvests of the year.
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.
