PLUCKED FROM A LARGE, CENTURIES-OLD WILD TEA TREE IN THE GOLDEN TRIANGLE

In the heart of the Kingdom of Thailand, Mariage Frères has discovered a gift from nature; a wild tea tree hidden in the ancient lands of Opium in the Golden Triangle.  In this misty, mountainous region situated along the border of Burma and Laos, nature’s best conditions are reunited: an exceptional terroir at an altitude of 1,500 meters allows this tea tree to let its rich leaves express unique and exquisite saveurs.

Dried leaves : The tender leaves and young, elegantly twisted buds decked out in majestic volcanic livery exhale a smooth perfume of frangipani flowers wet from the monsoon, joined by exquisite notes of pink galangal.

Infused leaves : Luminous green streaked with garnet. Still warm, the leaves seduce with a gourmet note of praline followed by a fresh burst of rose water. Then from the leaves exudes a fruity-green score evoking freshly-picked starfruit.

Liquor : The opalescent orange liquor blends into a round, cashew-tinted hue evoking elegantly fruity sensations of roasted apricot. A pleasantly sweet-and-floral nuance of dainty violet frames a delicious rush of candied quince.

Authentic and unbelievably sophisticated.

MAORI NOIR®
Black tea - Organic garden
New Zealand

TA6920 - 42 €

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 organic 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!

PRINCE D’ÉCOSSE®
Smoky white tea
Scotland

TA5620 - 78 €

A journey into the unknown: for the first time in the millennial history of tea, majestic Scotland carves itself a noble place among the grandest teas in the world. A confidential garden lies between misty cliffs and snowy peaks, nourished by the fertile land of the Highlands. North of Hadrian’s Wall and just miles away from the Arctic Circle, the Gulf Stream regulates the climate of this volcanic land, sculpted and wild, making it conducive to this sensational white tea. Over the years, in the heart of rare and indigenous flora, centenary seeds of camellia sinensis were gently suited to their new environment. The planters, responding to the requirements of Mariage Frères, selected only the finest of their tea plants from the land – some dusted with pure white snow, others kissed by radiant sunbeams.

Dried leaves : A revolutionary and unique white tea. Treated with respect and savoir-faire, the whole leaves and precious buds are harvested in the spring, the season best suited for the millennial art of working the leaves by hand and drying them in the sunlight. A work of craftsmanship follows, conferring to this white tea a round, delicately honeyed fragrance.

Infused leaves : A magical, fragrant journey distinguished by a precious note of incense followed by an airy filigree of fern buds.

Liquor : Scottish golden topaz in colour. The palate is adorned with a faintly milky, smoky aroma that blends with gourmet notes of Mirabelle plum and lotus stamen. An intangible and captivating veil of sweet amber crowns this masterpiece.
Its desirable imprint offers a tender and soft finale, supported by a delicious note of white truffle.

A tea of grand elegance, absolutely princely.

BLANC ROYAL®
White tea
Scotland

TA5610 - 78 €

Dried leaves : An exceptional harvest composed of tender young leaves and buds with a fragile duvet, carefully plucked as the morning fog lifts in the dawn of a sunny day. The terroir expresses itself in two ways: one evoking a hint of sweet licorice, the other immersing the taster deep into the damp heather of the Highlands.

Infused leaves : Tweed-green, darkened from the rain. A delicate balance of edelweiss tending toward rosy chypre, enlivened by a zesty note of mandarin. The rich aroma of its leaves exhale tonalities of white peach and clover honey.

Liquor : Crystal amber in colour with a texture as soft as almond milk on the palate. A unique sensation of cotton voile precedes a pleasantly sweet, floral aroma of poppy candy with a persistent note of candied angelica. The whole is harmoniously blended into an indescribable bouquet of incense.

An unforgettable royal potion!

RARE MILKY BLUE TEA®
Blue tea™
Formosa - Nantou

TA2708 - 38 €

At the heart of the island of Taiwan was born Rare Milky Blue Tea&reg;, in the region of Nantou, celebrated for its endless fertile plains and unreachable summits. Mariage Frères has distilled all the magic of the terroir of Tung Ting Mountain to create a unique and mysterious Blue Tea™ with a milky aroma, naturally drawn out from the essence of the leaf.

Dried leaves : Like a beautiful jade-pearl necklace the leaves are carefully rolled out and heated, eliciting an exquisite note of biscuit followed by a hint of chypre – reminiscent of a forest stroll in budding spring – accompanied by a reassuring fragrance of candied tamarind.

Infused leaves : The infused leaves open with a frank floral aroma recalling fresh redwood resin, then an airy note of precious rice, harmoniously blanketed with milky vapors.

Liquor : The ripe apricot-coloured robe is full of tender fragrances – an overture to a creamy and dense cup – bursting with stewed fruits on a backdrop of white almond cream.

Silky forever.

New Zealand

TA6911 - 46 €

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 organic cru exclusively for Mariage Frères.

Dried leaves : The youngest and most beautiful leaves are harvested one by one, then carefully hand-worked to obtain a precious sheen of jade and indigo. The nose evokes fresh bamboo resin amidst an invigorating aroma of camphor wood. The heart of the leaves emit a note of patisserie recalling marshmallow.

Infused leaves : Emerald-jade, the leaves open bountifully on a note of Bourbon vetiver and rosewood, carried by a hint of vanilla. The finale is mastered by a floral aroma of tuberose.

Liquor : Absinthe green. A fresh, downy veil of almond milk drapes over the palate. Frank and seductive, the finale balances between gelée de nèfle et une crème de figue aux noix.

The ends of the earth in a cup of tea.
