4 Tasting Notes
The latest blend of french summer tea series from Mariage Frères.
Recommend for cold brew or iced.
I did cold brew and drink it straight with a lot of ice cubes.
Though green tea based, I thought it was a blended black tea.
It has rich notes from berries and the scent of lemon add a solid tense to the aroma.
This will be my standard summer tea along with Casablanca.
Preparation
It’s a unique Earl Grey that uses Lapsang Souchong.
Has a crisp bergamot aroma with a rich smokiness.
The aftertaste has a definite sweetness that comes from Lapsang Souchong.
As one of the Lapsang Souchong lovers, I’ve been very excited to try this one but was not so stunning.

Preparation
Casablanca has a strong aroma of mint and bergamot. Steep 10g of Casablanca with 1 liter of cool water and leave it on overnight. It’s awesome for a hot day. Since the tea leaves have a lot of small pieces of green tea or mint, filter them carefully.
