This black tea from China is flavoured with rose essential oil and scattered with delicate petals.
It needs about a ton of rose petals from Bulgaria to make one litre of rose oil. That shows you the luxury of this black tea scented with this precious nectar! A fragrant, flavoured tea...

A case for the rose alone
The rose has always bloomed in touches in our creations, Eden Rose, Les Invités, Fidji… sometimes in the background, sometimes thanks to a fruity or oriental accord. But it had never been the only voice, the beating heart of a tea entirely designed for it. We had to offer it this noble silence in which it could resonate fully.
The final step was played out in the secrecy of the workshop: finding the right balance, avoiding excessive powdery or sweet flavors, and allowing the flower to express itself with purity. Black tea, with its enveloping structure, here enhances the rose, not as a perfume, but as a presence. Subtle, elegant, without ostentation.
A rose from Bulgaria
Our quest led us to Kazanlak, a small town nestled in the heart of the Valley of Roses in central Bulgaria. It is here, between the Balkan Mountains and the Thracian Plain, that the cultivation of the Damascena rose is a centuries-old, almost sacred tradition.
We walked the paths lined with fragrant bushes, visiting the artisanal distilleries where the petals are still processed according to ancestral methods, in large copper vats heated over a low flame. It was in this gently preserved town that we found our rose: fresh, vibrant, both delicate and sensual.
