Green tea

Green tea

If all teas are from Camelia Sinensis, it is the manufacturing method that differentiates green teas from other tea families. After the picking and wilting steps, the green tea will be roasted, in a wok (China) or in humid heat (Japan and Korea), to fix the color. This is the most important step in defining the colour and aromatic profile of a green tea. Vegetable, fresh, iodized, with notes of cooked vegetables, spinach or algae, the aromatic spectrum of green teas can be of great diversity. To allow the marriage of fruits, flowers and aromas, our house selects green teas from China of great sweetness. With the infusion, the flavors unite in an accord where each ingredient reveals all its aromatic facets.
