- 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.

“Tea from beyond the skies”

Issued from Jhinglam and Poomong, two extraordinary divisions of the Namring garden created in 1855 by the British, these parcels of land are found between 1,220 and 1,370 metres in altitude. A pruning in July, good sunlight and the masterful irrigation of hardy, century-old tea plants resistant to the cold temperatures allowed for an exceptionally early growth of buds and the confection of this grand cru 2018. The admirable work of the planters, the unique savoir-faire of Mariage Frères and the remarkable character of the Namring terroir give rise to a rich splendour of lunar velvety shades.

Dried leaves: The majestic silver tips that swath the young, indigo leaves exhale a perfume of fresh date and nougat.

Infused leaves: An elegant moiré of jade and silver, the leaves reveal a deliciously fruity-woody score of roasted guava.

Liquor: Champagne gold, the silky liquor pleasantly caresses the palate. A note of grilled pine nut precedes a gentle, zesty aroma of blood orange married to an airy fragrance of white orchid.

THE MOST PRECIOUS OF JAPANESE GYOKURO

Mount Fuji, about 100 km southwest of Tokyo, dominating the Japanese Alps overlooking the Pacific Ocean, is a sacred mountain for the Japanese. The Asahina River meanders along its steep slopes, irrigating a volcanic soil that offers exceptional qualities to the tea trees.

Our Gyokuro Suprême Asahina comes from a small family garden surrounded by forests and lovingly cared for by a couple of tea enthusiasts: the planter, recognised for over half a century as an expert in the art of treating the precious leaves of tea trees – to protect them from direct sunlight, he veils them in straw and with his companion only harvests at dawn – has specially created for Mariage Frères only – as the great painters of the past used to do – a masterpiece, in a very limited amount and of a quality never before attained.

Dried leaves : long and elegant, gleaming emerald green, accentuated by and glittering buds: unbelievably tender

Infused leaves : a fresh floral bouquet, supple and intense, remarkably elegant

Liquor : blue-green in colour – symbol of the Japanese Imperial Court – marked by a thick, velvety texture, full-bodied, supple with aromatic inflections that progressively intensify. Smooth and dense, it quickly entices the palate with the gourmet notes of biscuit, crème pâtissière, and warm brioche; floral buttercup rise up and provide a striking counterpoint. The whole is crowned by a long finale, sweet with a hint of red berries. The luxurious sensation, delicate and opulent, lingers indefinitely in the mouth.

The leaves may undergo a second, shorter infusion which will prove just as wonderful.

Usually lost in clouds and mist, this garden was as briefly as miracously bathed by the sun, uncovering Mount Kanchenjunga, the third highest moutnain in the world, just when Mariage Frères’  tea taster  chose the batch that had been offered this summer : a blessing from the gods ?

This plantation, one of the oldest in Darjeeling, was founded in 1854 just like Mariage Frères. With its 176 hectares at 2,100m in altitude, where the slopes of the Himalayas wind through India, Nepal and Bhutan, this is the closest garden to the old town. Tea plants that have been lovingly cherished for over 160 years still produce one of the best crus in the region.

Dried leaves: The handsome buds and flamboyant young leaves in matte ebony deliver a gourmet fragrance evoking scones accompanied by delicious carob marmalade.

Infused leaves: The colour of Indian summer, the blooming leaves vibrate with tones of maple syrup and a voluptuous hint of precious incense.

Liquor: Dusky amber. The suave, fragrant exuberance of fresh walnut, hazelnut and almond blends wonderfully with the tangy richness of blackcurrant. The tasting continues with an elegant bright inflection of pomegranate honey and a final note of pineapple infused with hibiscus flower. 
 
Happiness is in the cup.

Set aside

Located east of Darjeeling and facing the spectacular snow-capped peaks of the Himalayas, the garden of Chongtong (arrow-head), planted in 1869 at an altitude of 1,768 metres, has recently remade itself by turning toward biodynamic agriculture while continuously striving for the summit of quality.

Dried leaves: 	The silver buds and young leaves – princely green, slender and majestic – unleash a breeze of blossoming bamboo forest, delicately mingled with a gourmet wave of white meringue.

Infused leaves: 	Luminous chrome green. Gourmet notes of fresh date are interspersed with hints of bergamot lemon zest.

Liquor: 	Brilliant sepia. A wisp of cotton flower caresses the palate, accompanied by a delicious sensation of hazelnut and grilled pistachio. An enchanting flowery-sweet taste of rosy mirabelle marmalade blends with the sweet aroma of tender, juicy white peach.

Darjeeling magique.
