The tea plant of Chinese origin – the so-called Thea Sinensis – is the most widely spread in north-eastern India, since it is the most suitable one for the rather cool and frosty climate of this region at high altitudes. This growing area produces very high quality orthodox teas. Its mild, aromatic nature and the typical tangy, light-coloured first flush cup characterise our Darjeeling from the middle of the first plucking period. The many green leaf tips shine in the "multifaceted" infusion. An attractive offer, which no lover of fresh, flowery teas can resist!

Ingredienti: tè nero

The former “Coffee Island” Sri Lanka has turned into a “tea island” and has become one of the world’s biggest tea exporter. This Ceylon tea comes from one of the most important cultivable regions of Sri Lanka, the Dimbula District located in the west of the country. The quality, or leaf grading, OP, stands for Orange Pekoe and means royal leaf. This is the quality you can find in our beautiful, dark, wiry, needle-shaped leaf. Despite its dark infusion, the cup has the typical bright red-brown colour of Ceylon teas. The unique, full, spicy and aromatic taste would even convince James Taylor, the father of Ceylonese tea plantations.

The basis for this exquisite arrangement of tea and blossoms is laid each year in the province of Guangxi where only select tea plants are carefully cultivated. A limited amount of fine, young sprouts and buds needed for this handmade quality are picked in spring. The heart of this blooming tea is formed by marigold blossoms, which unfold like the sun and are surrounded by a wreath of green-glowing leaf tips. Smooth and flowery on the palate with a honey-coloured liquor.
Ingredients: green tea, marigold blossoms.
