Produced in the Blavet Valley in the heart of Morbihan in Brittany by Weizi and Denis Mazerolle , founders of the Filleule des Fées garden, it is a real gourmet favorite where the cultivar of Chinese origin Cui Lü acclimatized in the Breton terroir and shaped by Weizi develops a smooth, slightly tangy texture, and notes of sandalwood, fruit and honey. It comes from a spring 2023 harvest and over the months of maturation it has acquired roundness and faded aromas worthy of great vintage teas suitable for aging. It is a rounded tea with warm accents, ideal for an afternoon break but also very pleasant as a morning tea to wake up gently with a savory or sweet breakfast!
It will turn out to be ideally prepared for gong fu cha

Weizi et Denis Mazerolle : Filleule des Fées
Weizi and Denis are the pioneers of tea plantation in France: a demanding activity open to the world, just like this passionate Franco-Chinese couple. The Filleule des Fées plantation takes root in the heart of the Blavet Valley, in Brittany. In 2006, Denis and Weizi planted 10 tea bushes in the middle of nature following a trip to China. The gardens now have 25,000 tea trees spread...
J'ai eu la chance de goûter ce thé cet été quelques semaines seulement après sa récolte. Au-delà de sa rondeur et de l'impression chaleureuse qu'il dégage, il tient un équilibre parfait quand il s'agit d'amertume et de vivacité. Au fil des infusions, il s'est révélé complet. Et quoi de mieux que de rencontrer un thé entier!
