A tea that evokes the cool sensation of the ocean
With a base of "blue-green" tea, the color of the ocean, this original recipe, dedicated to lovers of the fascinating watersheds on which we depend, reveals a wealth of flavors. After an attack of lemony notes offered by ginger, the combination of peppermint and rosemary, the plant of sailors, brings a breath of fresh air to this particularly deep and aromatic wu long.
