Words from Mariage Frères: "Mariage Frères invites you on a sensory journey to Southern Africa.
Tucked away at 1,150m in altitude lies a family plantation known for the quality of its teas for the past three generations.
Southern Africa is a territory with nearly infinite natural resources and a climate structured by the rainy season between November and March. Local tea bushes have adapted to this unique Terroir and produce artisanal harvests rich in flavour. The young, freshly hand-picked leaves are quickly sent to the atelier to be crafted into this particular tea which is then delicately smoked with the leaves of guava trees that grow on the plantation.
