Creme Brulee
Scarf tightened and coat buttoned to the collar; a seat is chosen outside. The opportunity of enjoying some hot tea amidst a Parisian Winter street scene is impossible to pass up. Silky caramel tea is sipped with a biting breeze, its amber shades an oasis of warmth against the cobblestones of silver and blue. The contrast is achingly beautiful – but contemplation is cut short by the sharp crack of an old woman breaking the top of her creme brulee with a small silver spoon. She doesn’t eat it right away, but instead she stares at the burned sugar and bright yellow custard, then to the street around her. Softly she says something to herself in French. You don’t entirely understand, but then again you probably do.

Tea is a ritual of quiet attention. Once welcomed into a routine, it provides dependable moments of joyous tranquility via the senses:
Sight: the golden, amber hues of a steeped brew.
Olfactory: the earthy or floral scent of unfurling steam.
Touch: the weight and texture of a perfectly crafted cup.
And of course – the taste.
Each enchanting sensory cue to draws the tea drinker deeper into the present moment. This is why we define tea as sanctuary.
In a world of distractions and glorified hustle, the deliberate act of brewing tea is nothing short of gently radical. Adjusting water temperatures, studying the copper threads as they infuse into the pot, and treasuring the first sip are all small but meaningful acts of rebellion. And like any revolution, at its core is principled intention. Though few rebellions announce themselves in something as delightful as a cup of tea, therein lies its subversive audacity. For this reason, our blends and their accompanying stories are meticulously crafted to enhance tea’s transportive powers and thoroughly envelop the drinker. In essence, tea is neither trend nor commodity. It is a timeless practice with a home in every culture. It is refined over centuries and waits to be discovered – telling its story time, and time again.
