Green tea
Tea from China - Taïping Hou Kui - box of 50g
This tea was harvested on April 28th, after "Gu Yu" (Grain festival) which begins on April 20th. This Taiping Hou Kui was entirely harvested and manufactured by hand. We distinguish the imprint of the sieves used for the flat shaping of the leaves. Only 500g per day and per person are produced. This is truly an exceptional product.
Brewing advice: The best way to prepare this tea is to take a pinch in a glass and pour simmering water (90°C). Wait a few minutes for the tea to steep and enjoy! Regardless of how long, the tea will not become too astringent. Once your glass is empty, fill it again with simmering water, Taiping Hou Kui stands very well several infusions.

KNOW-HOW & QUALITY
Teas canisters and infusions
All our teas and the plants used in infusions are selected through the seasons by our buyers, directly from our producers. All products are chosen for both their visual appearance and their organoleptic qualities. Compliance tests are then commissioned from a COFRAC-accredited external, independent laboratory before any orders are placed.
Once received, batches are placed in quarantine while we carry out two more tests. The first is an organoleptic test completed by our specialists (taste, smell and visual). The second comprises a series of analyses at a COFRAC.-accredited, independent, external lab.
At our factory, we have developed special optical sorting and dusting equipment for our raw ingredients. Delicate items are sorted by hand.
Our metal boxes are the trademark of DAMMANN Frères’ expertise and are an excellent way to maintain the quality of the leaves, ensure the tea remains fresh and preserve the careful balance of our recipes.
