The FAUCHON blend tea :

  • The FAUCHON Blend is emblematic of the care that FAUCHON takes with its creations: a nose of lemon-orange citrus fruits, a floral heart of rose and lavender that blossoms in the mouth with sensual vanilla accords. A subtle composition where each aroma plays its part harmoniously on a background of black tea, blend of China and Ceylon, soft and amber.
