Darjeeling First Flush

T1013181 - 54 € / 100g

../images/T2/T1013181.jpg

Set aside

- Issued from a garden in biodynamic conversion -

North Tukvar or « Flame of fire » is one of the most famous gardens of Darjeeling from where one can admire snow-covered Kanchenjunga – the third highest mountain in the world. Throughout the years, the plantation has become a model for sustainable living by producing its own natural compost and installing a gravity-based irrigation system. The surrounding bamboo forests preserve the stability of this rich terroir full of exceptional century-old tea plants.

Dried leaves: Magnificent downy buds with their handsome reseda green leaves reveal notes of buttery shortbread and coconut.

Infused leaves: Once infused, the supple leaves offer fragrances of pomegranate syrup and roasted chestnut.

Liquor: Golden amber. The smooth liquor’s aroma, reminiscent of pistachio milk, is a pure joy. In the cup, a perfumed wave of orange blossom and Damascus rose dance with delicious notes of Reine-Claude plum jam.

A First Flush Sovereign.

GYOKURO KAGOSHIMA
Green tea - Jardin Premier*
Japan

T4144 - 65 € / 100g

../images/T2/T4144.jpg

Set aside

Our Gyokuro comes from a small, organic family garden in the celebrated town of Makizono situated on the island of Kyushu.
This splendid ‘Shadow Tea’, a gift from the land of the Rising Sun, is cultivated according to the Japanese tradition of shading the tea bushes from direct sunlight. In these exquisite terroirs, the woven straw of the shade houses undulate with the hilly, fertile landscapes of one of the most beautiful regions in Japan. Protected from the sun for two to three weeks, the supple leaves with an extraordinary gourmet aroma of white flowers are then plucked by hand using precise ancestral techniques. After a meticulous crafting, the planter achieves this fine and lustrous tea with a rich umami flavour synonymous of a Grand Cru.

Dried leaves : The buds and tender leaves are gently steam-heated with pure volcanic water until they become marvellous, emerald needles delivering a score of blossoming white orchids, followed by notes of roasted Fuji apples and tender meringue.

Infused leaves : Brilliant emerald. The leaves’ perfume opens on a note of white guava and golden caramel.

Liquor : Jade-tinted silk hemmed with gold, the liquor caresses the palate with a velvety texture and a soft umami aroma. The sweetness of white strawberry married to the woody-flowery fragrance of the leaves evoke gourmet marron glacé, crowned by a finale of white nougat and green pistachio. 
		
A tea of high emotions.

SFTGFOP1 DJ5/18 - Jardin Premier*
Darjeeling First Flush

T1007185 - 53 € / 100g

../images/T2/T1007185.jpg

Set aside

The garden of Singbulli (meaning « Refuge of the Lions ») spreads out to the west of Darjeeling in the heart of the fertile valley of Mirik. The most beautiful parcels selected for and by Mariage Frères extend up to the summits (almost 1,700 meters in altitude), amongst the picturesque monasteries and pure, crystal-clear lakes. Thanks to its hundred year old tea plants, this prestigious appellation bears exquisite harvests. An iconic must-have in the confidential world of premium teas.

Dried leaves: The young, emerald-coloured leaves and the pearly buds deliver notes of starfuit and cashew.

Infused leaves:	Imperial green. Hints of fragrant ivy mix with those of succulent damson plum bursting with aroma.

Liquor: Pale gold. The liquor, mellow and enveloping, unleashes amazingly fruity notes of muscatel grape and juicy peach. Variations of almond and vanilla blend with a woody-floral score evoking dashing camelia blossom. 
	
A new sovereign of the senses.

KUKI HOJICHA
Toasted green tea - Jardin Premier*
Japan

T4261 - 12 € / 100g

../images/T2/T4261.jpg

Set aside

Our Kuki Hojicha is issued from a small, family-run tea garden in the charming Mie countryside, in the heart of the celebrated region of Kansai.
A high-quality Kukicha composed of fine Gyokuro twigs is exquisitely married to a delicious Hojicha made from the beautiful leaves of a Bancha after a gentle stove-top heating. Soothing and flavourful, this new tea can be enjoyed alone or accompanying meals, in the morning or in the evening thanks to its low theine content.

Dried Leaves: In beautiful matte mahogany, the leaves seduce with their perfume of roasted cacao blended with notes of liquorice and red caramel.

Infused Leaves: Shining ebony, fragrances of gingerbread mix with an aroma of forest floor.

Liquor: Deep amber. The liquor, fresh and lively, resonates with immortelle blossom mixed with tonka bean and raisin. The finale is as delicate on the palate as a drop of heather honey.

The Art of Seduction.

SENCHA NARA
Green tea - Jardin Premier*
Japan

T4270 - 50 € / 100g

../images/T2/T4270.jpg

Set aside

Notre Sencha Nara est issu d’un petit jardin de thé organique du village de Tsukigase à Nara.
Ce joyau inestimable composé exclusivement de jeunes bourgeons récoltés un à un par des cueilleuses aux gestes précis s’épanouit au cœur de temples bouddhistes aux bienfaits infinis sur les âmes, et selon la tradition locale, sur le Terroir. Quelques heures à peine séparent la récolte d’un délicat et succinct flétrissage dans l’atelier familial, avant la cuisson douce à l’aide d’une vapeur d’eau pure. Les jeunes aiguilles lustrées parées de leur habit vert flamboyant exhalent mille et une fragrances magiques, propices à l’évasion mais aussi et surtout aux plaisirs infinis de la dégustation d’un cru confidentiel en quantité très limitée.

Feuilles sèches : Les bourgeons émeraudes livrent une note fruitée-fleurie de mirabelles suivie d’une onde lactée de figue blanche sur un filigrane vanillé irrésistible.

Feuilles infusées : Vert nacré lumineux. Le parfum des feuilles évoque un sablé au beurre, rejoint par la douceur parfumée des fleurs de cerisiers et de nashis rôtis.

Liqueur : Jade aux reflets dorés. Le palais est enveloppé d’une intense saveur umami au parfum hespéridé, puis par la texture moelleuse et liquoreuse, privilège des seuls Grands Crus. Des effluves de bigaradiers en fleurs magnifiés de notes d’abricot cuit ponctuent le final couronné de noix d’arganier grillées et de fleurs d’osmanthus odorantes.

T6920 - 66 € / 100g

../images/T2/T6920.jpg

Set aside

Our adventurer’s spirit has taken us far off the beaten track to bring back this unique and surprising tea from a new continent: New Zealand inscribes its unexpected name in our tea catalogue.

Irrigated by the largest river on the island, the Waikato (in Maori « flowing water ») is known for its large biodiversity. In the north of the territory, a small garden dedicates itself to the confection of this cru exclusively for Mariage Frères.

Dried leaves : The buds are harvested manually then delicately crafted so as to give a deep, matte ebony finish. The nose resonates with subtle, woody overtones. An elegantly floral aroma evokes the narcissus that grows along the volcanic foothills of the aptly named « Smoking Island ».

Infused leaves : Dazzling shades of tan & amber. A fruity heart note gracefully defined by blackcurrant and plum leads into a soaring aroma of antique rose while in the background notes of cashew and autumn truffle linger about.

Liquor : Crystalline amber, fruity and supple like a quince poached in strawberry tree berry syrup, with an infinite persistence as invigorating as licorice candy.

Black is très Beautiful!

The green gold of Colombia!
The young, luminous green leaves are blended with exotic fruits harvested just down the road from the plantation (pitaya, naranjilla, starfruit and passionfruit), for a delightfully fresh and sour beverage.
A delicious choice for either hot or iced tea.

This tea is a part of the Thés de Colombie collection, composed exclusively of teas, spices and fruits from Colombia. A Mariage Frères exclusive, these teas reflect the gourmet and dynamic culture of this country. As surprising as it is unique, this tea is cultivated in a place of indescribable beauty; straddling the vertiginous slopes of the Andean mountains in the heart of the cocoa plantations, the tea leaves develop incredibly subtle aromas, both intense and fruity. These teas are the result of a sustainable agriculture on exceptionally pure lands, nourished by crystal clear waters flowing down from the snowy summits.

Mariage Frères breaks with all the codes and introduces The French Art of Tea to the hushed and confidential world of Pu-Erh; a privileged relationship with the planter has brought forth a ‘Suprême’ harvest and a meticulous imperial tea. Like the rarest of Cognacs, the best harvests issued from reserved parcels are married together to create the jewel of the already unique and extravagant collection of Pu-Erh available on the Mariage Frères tea menu.

<d> Dried leaves:The young leaves, elegant and golden, release a profusion of noble fragrances evoking black truffle wet with morning dew, the flowery-scented wood of the cocoa tree, and roasted chestnut.

Infused leaves:Blazing amber. The infused leaves evoke a reverie of a forest walk surging with the aromas of autumn, joined by captivating notes recalling an antique mahogany humidor and a dash of musky Cologne.

Liquor Pale gold. The infusion is delicate, dense and rich with a myriad of fabulously seductive and enchanting notes. The graceful prelude of a bouquet of lotus, persistent and perfumed, is followed by a sweet and subtle dash of cinnamon. A frank and layered heart note of fern and iris diffuse with vanilla and tonka bean before ascending in a soft, zesty finale.

Heavenly and virtuous.

This garden is situated at the summit of the Blue Mountain near Darjeeling Town, one of the historic stations of the famous « Toy Train » inaugurated in the 19th century. From these lands grow exclusive and unique crus, counted among the best in the world, in the heart of the Himalayas amidst the lush forests of rare, precious trees. On preserved land and surrounded by orange groves, these century-old tea plants deliver the magical harvests sought after by afficionados of prestigious First Flush Darjeeling teas.

Dried leaves: The whole leaves, thin and twisted, form a handsome mosaic of rich, verdant hues.

Infused leaves: A dapper palette of gourmet fragrances slowly reveals itself. A delicious scent of apricot jam sprinkled with violet petals precedes a tender aroma of fresh raspberry.

Cold brew : 
1 - place 10g of tea in 1 liter of spring water; keep in the fridge for about 12 hours. 
2 - filter out the leaves then let the liqueur come to room temperature.
3 - best served in a large balloon glass, filled up to a third.

Jasmine tea by Mariage Frères
Our jasmine tea is scented according to a time-honoured tradition.
Plucked at dawn, thousands of delicate jasmine flowers are layered into the tea leaves and buds.
The dry tea thus absorbs all of the heady, natural fragrance from the fresh flowers.
This melding is repeated several times so the essence suffuses the heart of the tea.
Between perfuming, the tea is dried again so that new, freshly plucked flowers may impart more aroma.
After giving up all their delicious jasmine scent to the tea, the dried flowers are then carefully collected by hand, one by one.
The all-natural jasmine tea is finally ready to be enjoyed.

Set aside

This garden, one of the oldest in Darjeeling, was created the same year as Mariage Frères in 1854. The tea plants, lovingly pampered for over 160 years, still produce one of the best crus of Darjeeling. With its 176 hectares at 2,100m in altitude, where the slopes of the Himalayas wind their way between India, Nepal and Bhutan, this is the closest garden to Darjeeling Town.

Dried leaves: Whole, rolled and twisted young leaves undulate in elegance under a spring tint of green malachite and golden teak wood.

Infused leaves: Sweet notes of fresh apricot and green plum dance majestically with an airy note of sandalwood.

Liquor: Clear and brilliant, in a cheerful and luminous golden tone, the cup overflows with a fruity bouquet of nashi pear and banana blossom. A long and persistent note of green almond takes hold of the liquor, bringing it liveliness and freshness.
The taste of a happy spring.

Cold brew:		
1 - place 15g of tea in 1 litre of spring water; keep in the fridge for about 12 hours. 
2 - filter out the leaves then let the liqueur come to room temperature.
3 - best served in a large balloon glass, filled up to a third.

For generations, a family plantation known for the quality of its teas sits nestled at 1,150m in altitude, in a territory with infinite natural resources, sustained by a climate marked by the rainy season from November to March. Local tea plants well-adapted to this unique Terroir produce artisanal harvests rich in flavour; the young leaves, delicately harvested by hand, are quickly crafted in the estate’s atelier into this particular tea.

Dried leaves: The handsome whole leaves shine in amber and acacia and emit a sweet fragrance evoking luscious pound cake married to an invigorating aroma of Bengal quince.

Infused leaves: Azure-gleaming celadon, exhaling a scent of ripe Mirabelle and a fresh bouquet of cedar forest.

Liquor: Luminous gold. A fruity score of almond elegantly combined with a woody oriental note.

This rare tea comes from the region of Guria, at the foot of Mount Bakhmaro, not far from the Black Sea. This long forgotten garden is surrounded by a forest of centenary acacia trees which nourishes and protects the land. The harvest is realised once a year, in May, and produces only a few kilos of meticulously selected leaves. Delicately oxidized before leaving the atelier, Mariage Frères is proud to present this hidden treasure.

Dried leaves: The leaves are astoundingly beautiful: downy matte ebony, they unleash a perfume of agarwood, fresh liquorice, energizing cardamom and smooth cocoa truffle.

Infused leaves: Precious obsidian. A fragrance of storm swept volcanic rock blends with a gourmet note of fresh date and an intense hint of camelia.

Liquor: Coppery gold. A magnificent score of iris and black cherry structure the tasting while a note of brown sugar and myrtle berry merge perfectly together. The finale is sinfully delicious, evoking an intense mousse au chocolat noir with zesty tonka bean.

The nirvana of black tea.

Garden in the process of becoming organic

The confidential garden of Pandam, not far from Darjeeling Town, rises to 1,790m in altitude where the magnificent hundred-year-old tea bushes flood the panorama with a thousand shades of green. Mariage Frères has contributed to the revival of this garden where each year the planter has turned more and more toward a method of biodynamic agriculture, in harmony with nature and men. Today, this fabulous tea rightly earns its noble title thanks to this extraordinary harvest.

The buds and young leaves evoke powdery green porcelain, speckled with silver tips. A delicious note of safflower is scored with a hint of orange blossom biscuit.

A luminous aroma of green almond blends with a sweet floral scent of Muscatel and fern.

The amber liquor drapes the palate with an airy, persistent fragrance evoking the sweetness of custard apple married to the freshness of white magnolia flower. Silky with a very pleasant texture, the liquor is sustained by a creamy richness recalling pecan enlivened with a dash of green orange.

Très chic!

In the far south of Japan, Kagoshima Bay is shaped by the nearby volcanoes found on Kyushu. This garden with centenary tea trees originating from the best plants on the island is nourished by a prodigious terroir. The harvest distinguishes itself from other grand producers by a heating method where the leaves undergo successive steamings; the vapour thus penetrates to the heart of the buds, enabling the leaves to unleash a veritable sensorial quintessence during the tasting.

Dried leaves : An elegant combination of young leaves in luminescent green deliver fruity intonations of pomegranate and loquat. A smooth, milky heart note evokes the influential trade winds that bask the gardens in nurturing mists.

Infused leaves : Elegant green garnet, the leaves exude a pleasant flowery-sweet scent of lilies while a woody aroma seems to recall a bucolic walk through a forest of cedars dripping from the monsoons. Once cooled, a hint of golden buckwheat arouses the senses.

Liquor : A profound and mysterious emerald. The cup offers an ambrosial first note of Brazil nut followed by a gourmet hint of white chocolate with floral highlights. Drawn against the palate is a umami flair in harmony with unique flavours: the roundness of white strawberry, the vivacity of yuzu, and the sweet bitterness of hops.

A charming idyll.
