Description

This black tea, this flavored creation signed by the House will be savored throughout the day for the greediest ones’ pleasure, for a sunny tea time filled with sweetness.

When you open your tea bag or tin, you can admire its delicious composition; its whole long black leaves, prettily decorated with cornflower and mallow petals, adding a touch of purple and yellow to this blend; and breathe in the fruity flavors, slightly creamy that are released from it.

In your mouth, the smooth and soft texture of this flavored black tea does not leave any bitterness, nor astringency, but on the contrary it reveals rather nice and sweet flavors, with a light sourness. Your palate is going to take delight in these flavors of stewed fruit in a first phase, before enjoying a beautiful long finish.

This flavored black tea can be savored perfectly for a moment of relaxation, while looking for some sunshine and a change of scene. THEODOR placed it on the theme of “Laziness”, through its essence characterized by desires for escape and lazing about. Its fruity and deep notes are a true invitation to relax and to holidays and they are going to provide you with many 100% vegan short tea breaks at any time of the week.

“People from the South really appreciate living at the sun’s rhythm… this need for laziness is obscene, nonsense and yet so comfortable…To take it easy? Surely, this is tempting, but is it serious?

My tea is my break, my sweet time… Through a wild peach natural flavor, I recharge my batteries taking an intimate nap and the break lasts in my mouth. That’s good enough for me!”
