Description

The character and refined quality of this floral, gently sweet tea have earned it the nicknames "the mocha of teas" and "surgeon's tea" — it awakens without overstimulating. This organic tea reveals a honeyed scent and is perfect in the morning.

Among Palais des Thés' single-origin teas, Grand Yunnan Impérial stands out as one of the most beloved. It has won over many coffee drinkers, making a fine substitute at the start of the day.

It pairs beautifully with red meat, its notes melding with the smoky fragrances of roasted or grilled dishes. The honeyed character of Grand Yunnan Impérial also harmonises wonderfully with the intensity of dark chocolate, forming a chord full of personality.
