Thé Noir

Moondakotee, in English "Residence of the moon“, is one of the larger plantations in Darjeeling. Due to its exposed location, the path of the moon can be traced during the cold and clear nights. The moon also substantially influences the quality of the tea plants which consist to 80% of China bushes, 14% of Assam hybrids and approximately 5% of various clones. For the lover of flowery, highly aromatic teas.

 

 

This blend consists of carefully selected, high quality garden teas of the late first flush season and is already blended for us at the origin before being made ready for transport. A medium, almost black leaf as well as a light, brazen-coloured cup characterise this quality with its fresh, slighty spicy character. Always an indulgence!

 

Derived from the French word "Mont", meaning mountain, this garden of approximately 76 ha lies within a mountain range in the Kurseong district. The factory, situated on a high plateau, annually produces around 15,000 kg of purely organically cultivated tea from bushes which are largely irrigated using natural springs. This results in premium qualities which are highly valued by connoisseurs around the world. 

 

Keemun is, without doubt, one of the most popular tea varieties of China. Even though the small, jet-black needle-shaped leaf was once only grown in the province of Anhui in central China, its path to victory into the world of tea could not be stopped. Thanks to its very low content of tanines it is very wholesome, with a sweetly spicy, slightly smoky bouquet. The cup colour glows dark red with copper brown reflections.

 

The tea gardens of Yunnan belong to those of highest altitude in the world. Finest green and black teas are produced in temperatures averaging 12-23°C. This exquisite black tea variety consists of a high proportion of large, golden-brown leaf tips and a dark, copper-brown infusion. The substantially sweet-spicy flavour is followed by a malty, smoky aftertaste. An excellent tea for true tea enthusiasts.

 

Thé Vert, Blanc et Semi-Fermenté

One of the most famous white teas, also called "White Peony“, is mainly grown in the southern Chinese province of Fujian. The voluminous tea leaves are largely handled manually and dried in the sun. This results in fascinating qualities which can be infused more than once and, hence, yield various flavour notes. 

 

 

Ingredients: half-fermented tea*, jasmine blossoms*. *organic farming

Various flowers, spices and extracts were already used in ancient China to flavour tea. Elaborate processes were needed to blend the teas with the ingredients and store it until the desired intensity of scents and flavours was adopted. Jasmine tea is one of the flavour classics with its lightly yellow cup colour and typical, delicately flowery flavour.

 

The finest leaves form the basis of this delicacy which used to be reserved for the emperor during the Tang Dynasty. This speciality, which is also known as "Dragon's Well", is cultivated in the area around the famous Xi lake (western lake) in the province of Zhejiang. The infusion of the emerald green leaf is unusually mild, almost sweetish in taste and unfolds the scent of delicately roasted maroons.

 

In China and Japan alike, Sencha means something like steamed tea. During the drying process, the tea leaves are brought into a longish form before they are heated in large pans in order to stop the fermentation. The infusion has a fresh and grassy scent, the flavour is aromatic and slightly tart - a must-have for any green tea fan!

 

The Japanese like to enjoy their Bancha during their meals. This large-leafed "everyday tea" is produced during the third harvesting phase in the late summer and contains up to 70% less caffeine than the earlier harvests in the year. Subsequently, the infusion is very mild and the flavour delicately mellow with a slight grassy note. Ideal for all those who do not like the tart taste of "normal" green teas!
