How to differentiate a culinary matcha from a ceremonial matcha? Every type of matcha is composed of green tea leaves which are finely powdered with the use of a grindstone, and they all contain caffeine. Although, the color can vary, going from a vibrant saturated green, to a lighter tint or a gorgeous jade green. Matcha can be classified in different grades and specified according to aroma, texture and even where it is originated. Each type of matcha can be appreciated in its own way. Pure, with milk or to be added in a drink or dessert recipe. Here is what to ask ourselves to choose the matcha that will best fit our needs. |

The powdered green tea has been used in the Japanese tea ceremony (Cha-no-yu) for centuries. Matcha is made using pure luxury grade Japanese green tea Tencha leaves, a Japanese tea variety that is shaded beneath special shade covers for 3 weeks before plucking. The shading forces the plants to produce a higher than normal chlorophyll content which gives the leaves a rich green color and high level of antioxidants.
Matcha is prepared in a bowl (chawan) and mixed with boiling water with a bamboo whisk (chasen). This matcha is tasty with frank herbaceous aromas and a slight bitterness.

How to create a tea blend reminiscent of freshly baked apple pie and pumpkins? Our challenge was to omit artificial flavours and truly focus on natural ingredients for our exclusive mix. Firstly, we created a list of spices inspired by traditional pumpkin pie recipes. The now revealed secret to our Autumn Tea is a great deal of spices: : nutmeg, allspice, ginger, cinnamon, cardamom and cloves. Then, we added a subtle touch of orange peels and a sweet hint of vanilla. The core of our blend is Hojicha, a Japanese green tea well known for its roasted leaves. We chose it for its soft notes of hazelnut and chestnut as well as its low caffeine level. Cozy up and appreciate the long aftertaste of autumn spices!

Superb red tea reminiscent of wood bark with an earthy profile. The finish is mild and slightly sweet with a peppery finish. This Pu Erh SHOU from 2016 comes in a flat round shape. The tea leaves are pressed together (in a miniature version of the traditionnal large bing cha disc form) during the post-fermentation process wich lasts several years. The idea of an aged tea can sometimes surprise. This portioned version contains just what it takes to serve 1 liter of tea at a time. Therefore, it is perfect to try it and discover the red tea category.
To prepare the tea: remove the paper envelope, place the intact mini bing cha in the infuser of your teapot and pour a little bit of hot water (95 degrees Celsius) to rinse the leaves. After 15 to 20 seconds, discard the water. Fill the teapot with one litre of hot water (95 degrees Celsius), then let steep for 5 to 7 minutes. Meanwhile, the leaves will gradually separate and release their aromas. Free of bitterness, low in caffeine and tannin, red tea is excellent after meals.
The method to create Pu Erh SHOU teas: fresh leaves are manipulated similarly to preparing black tea by withering, drying and rolling. The precious leaves are then kept and spread under large canvases in a room at high temperature and humidity, thus accelerating the post-fermentation process.

In order to achieve this delicately flavoured Pu Erh, the tea leaves are placed in the peel of a mandarin before the fermentation is complete. As the tea ages, it absorbs the characteristic citrus aroma. This allows the taste to be much less earthy than the traditional Pu Erh, and instead the flavour is woodsy with hints of sweet orange. It does however retain its complete lack of bitterness and amazing digestive properties. This unique Pu Erh is definitely worth a try!
The same tea leaves can be infused 2 to 3 times according to the suggested method of preparation.
Each mandarin content approximately 18 to 35 g.
