YIN ZHEN SUPRÊME

White tea from China, Fujian
Récolte 2019 - Jardin Premier*

These exceptional «Silver Needles» are harvested once a year. Mariage Frères reveals this first Yin Zhen Suprême originating from an extraordinary garden that produces true gourmet treasures.

Dried leaves: Pearly white and celadon, the buds dazzle with their finesse. The aromatic sweetness of tangerine flower is joined by a mellow, flowery hint of sandalwood and a heady wave of white orchid.

Infused leaves: Jade hemmed with ivory. A fragrant journey, aromas of almond milk and fresh pistachio drift in the wake of noble vanilla and wet peony.

Liquor: Luminous gold. The scent of crumpled wild mulberry leaves blends with the ethereal notes of white flowers. An impalpable fruitiness of mirabelle plum and fresh hazelnut linger over the palate before a harmonious finale of honeyed sugar apple.

A wish granted.
