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.
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.
Tea and food pairings
Steamed green teas go particularly well with rice-based dishes, fish and shellfish. They can also be paired with many goat's cheeses and sheep's cheese. They also work wonders with pastries, traditionally mochi, but also chocolate, lemon, red fruit or exotic desserts.
