GRAND CRU - Premium green tea from Japan
Autumn is an enchanting time when nature transforms into a symphony of warm, golden colors. The trees are adorned with flamboyant hues, creating a picture of exceptional beauty. It is a season of transition, where summer gives way to cooler days and evenings that invite the warmth of a cup of tea.
For our small tea brand, autumn is a special time. It’s the time when we select the finest teas to warm our customers’ hearts. The tea leaves mature and develop rich, comforting aromas, perfectly suited to cooler days.

🌱 What is black tea?
Contrary to popular belief, black tea can be less rich in theine than green tea. Because it is not because it has more tannins (more bitter, thicker, more colored) that it will be more theinated than other colors of tea.
🍵 How to prepare your black tea properly
Black teas are less fragile than green or white teas, so they are prepared between 80 and 90°C.
A black tea will infuse for between 3 and 5 minutes. More, if you like your teas full-bodied. But be careful, the longer the infusion and the higher the water temperature, the more bitterness develops.
These instructions are important because they help preserve not only the taste of the tea, but also its health-giving properties.
🧋 Cold infusion
Put 10 to 20g of tea in 1L of cold or room temperature water. Divide into two disposable tea bags Le Jardin de Mademoiselle. Iced tea is not an exact science: the colder the water and the larger the container, the slower the tea will infuse. Taste after the first hour. If it does not have enough flavor, add 30 minutes. Taste every additional 30 minutes until its flavors are diffused into the water.
