This tea just arrived with my order of 16 teas…yes I know 16 teas…:)
I found a lovely website selling Dammann Frères teas by 50 g ! So I was able to order more teas for the same amount.
This one wasn’t in my wish list but I decided to take 100 g to reach 39 € to beneficiate of the free shipping.
This is a great surprise because I like it so much.
As usually the tea base is the same Ceylon +China and the aromas are vanilla and hazelnut.Really nice for breakfast.
So sweet, so mellow, so YUMMY without being exceptional…just YUMMY and that’s really nice enough to me.

Oh wow! 16 teas! I smaller quantities! Yay!
yes :) the website is really cute and the service professional :http://www.instant-the.com/
most of the teas are Dammann Frères ones
That IS cute!
Nice website! It’s great that your first sampling was an unexpected hit!
Ooh, awesome about that website! I am still trying to decide what teas to buy when I visit Paris in July! Having to buy 100g makes it difficult to choose.
@Dinosara : you may order from them during your visit in France (or before)and request a delivery to your hotel or place in Paris.It took 2 full working days to receive my parcel.
@ Hallie : yes it decided to buy from this website because I loved the website design. and of course because I wanted to taste more Dammann Frères teas !
Aw, it looks like they don’t ship to North America. Darn!
they can do but this is expensive, I asked them in the past for a person living in Canada. That’s why you may request them to deliver in Paris to the place you’re going to live during your visit.
But you can also find small tea shops inside Paris which sell Dammann teas by 50g. The only point is they often don’t have more than 15 teas from DF (because they sell as well other brands)
Ah yes, I see. Do you have any recommendations for shops in Paris that sell various French teas (including Dammann) by 50g?
you have this one which has various tea brands : Compagnie coloniale, Dammann Frères and Kusmi teas :http://www.pagesjaunes.fr/pros/05368333?idContext=1405718383&portail=PJ#onglet-infos
be careful it is closed on Sunday and monday :)
if you want to taste japanese teas, Linfield teas (French Brand) or George Cannon teas (French as well) I highly recommend this shop :http://www.themerrymonk.fr/
and there is a shop thé et chocolat where you can buy Mariage Frères ones by 50g BUT only during the week (not the week end) :http://dismoiou.fr/p/fra/paris/7AO5W1/the-et-chocolat
but teas are almost 15% more expensive than in a MF shop (where you can only buy by 100g)
Thanks for the recommendations! Hopefully I’ll be able to check some of them out! :)
Funny that a tea called fleurilége is vanilla and hazelnut and not flowers! Glad it was a good surprise.
And this link list is going to be so useful to me! Thank you. Must bookmark.
@ Teresa : there are some sunflowers in the blend :) but the tea name is clearly playing on words : fleurilège for florilège which means collection,anthology…
