Tea = leaves and water Depending on the quality of your tap water, it may be necessary to filter it, or use mineral water instead. Using hard or chlorinated water would be an offense to your tea! Let your palate guide you... Depending on the tea, the shape of the leaves, the season or your personal taste, it is important to be able to adapt the brewing temperature. In general, the Chinese consider that boiling water deprives it of its life force. Others prefer to boil the water to "break the crust" and release the oxygen, then leave the water to cool to the desired tempe

rature. Each to his own method... Different types of teas Green tea Green tea is a great thirst-quencher and can be enjoyed throughout the day. It has draining proper

ties and is therefore ideal when dieting. Top quality green teas are among the most expen

teristic aroma of roasted chestnuts, hazelnuts, and honey. It is associated with the ideal of well-being and is also low in theine. As a result, it can be enjoyed in the evening with no risk of keeping you awake. Smoked tea Smoked tea is a black tea made from more mature, more powerful leaves. The smokiest teas are the powerful yet subtle Tarry teas. White tea Composed of buds and unfurled leaves from the newest growth of the tea plant. A rare and very refined tea. Yellow tea Composed almost exclusively of buds, yellow tea is a highly refined natural product. Flavoured teas These teas are flavoured with the essences of flowers or fruit, and it is precisely these refined aromas that are popular among tea lovers. The most famous scented leaf teas are Jasmin and Earl Grey, which are flavoured with bergamot orange. Red tea Rich in vitamins, low in caffeine, red tea does not in fact come from a tea shrub, but from a plant called Rooibos. It can be enjoyed throughout the day...
