Green tea with goji berries.
An original gift for those born in the sign of the Dragon and a unique way to extend good tidings for the New Year.
Inside the handsome red tin whose form recalls the Temple of Heaven, Mariage Frères has bestowed a green tea blended among Tibetan goji berries. A superfruit from the Himalayas – rich in antioxidants, vitamins, minerals and amino acids – to which the Taoist quest for immortality has for centuries attributed exceptional medicinal values as well as the reputation of an extraordinary elixir of youth.
The lush cup is cool with a slightly tart sweetness, a silky texture, and a full-bodied, fruity finale that leaves you smiling as the Year of the Dragon takes off.
Lacquered tin canister, silk-screened by hand.
How to prepare this green flavoured tea :
Measure out 3 g of tea for 20 cl of pure, filtered water.
Bring the water to a simmer (about 85° C)and let the tea infuse for 4 minutes.
Enjoy!
