FAUCHON TEA AND ITS TASTING MOMENTS
This autumn, FAUCHON celebrates tea!
Since 1886, a pioneering spirit has led FAUCHON to pave the way for a French approach to teas. First pure, then flavored from 1960, with the desire to enhance a wonder from elsewhere: the marriage of ancestral Asian savoir-faire with the French art of living.
This mission remains intact today: to design teas as messages of joy, capable of transforming every occasion into a celebration.
To achieve this, chance has no place. Our tea experts have succeeded one another, preserving the history and memory of recipes unchanged for centuries, while continuing innovation and creation.
Today, from the conception of our products to the selection of raw materials, we pursue this desire, that of sublimating the essences of nature to bring back our happiest memories.
To taste a FAUCHON tea is to live an experience made of magic, sensations, perceptions, memories, and emotions.
We believe that by sublimating the present moment, we will make it a happy memory for tomorrow.
These archives, as guardians of time, bear witness to changes and eras, conquests and victories, but above all to the stories of men and women who, around a cup of tea, loved, sang, cried, and then promised never to forget.
TASTING MOMENTS:
Breakfast
The first gastronomic moment of the day, it sets the tone. Whether you prefer it generous and varied, or light and invigorating, it is an essential moment of the French art of living. Brioche, buttery, and vanilla scents already awaken the senses.
For a fresh and thirst-quenching wake-up, choose a tea with zesty and minty flavors.
To fill up on good humor, prefer the flavors of a sparkling cluster of red fruits!
Lovers of "English Breakfast" will fall under the spell of the unmissable Morning - a delicate blend of black Ceylon and Assam tea - which is the renown of our house.
Lunch
A summer salad, a more formal business lunch, or on a brasserie terrace, we will choose an invigorating tea that will prolong the moment. If the tea & food pairing is particularly popular in Asia - where it is customary to accompany lunch with a cup of tea at the table - our house guides you step by step, to discover which tea will best complement your lunch.
Tea-time
Tea time is a moment of all delights! The Parisian spirit, relaxed luxury, bursts of laughter, and declarations of love. FAUCHON tea time heralds a moment for confidences and little secrets. A melting Madeleine, a crispy raspberry biscuit, and some savory appetizers punctuate this wonderful moment. With family, friends, or simply enjoying your own company, tea is the undisputed star. You can choose it pure origin for a journey beyond the horizon or flavored for a fruity escape. Let yourself be carried away by our special selection of French-style tea time.
Cocktail
A glamorous moment of the day, cocktail hour will introduce you to teas in a new light. As the lights dim, tea liqueurs infuse with plant absolutes, fruits, or at the heart of prestigious spirits, to bring forth new and charming sensations.
Night
When evening comes, at the hour of confidences and dim lights, plants inspire silence and serenity. Soothing herbs and sweet, honeyed blends leave one pensive.
