Words from Mariage Frères tea house: “To celebrate the third millenary, MARIAGE FRÈRES added a new chapter to its long saga of creating special blends. A green tea was carefully chosen for its smooth, natural flavour, then wed to secret fragrances of fruit and flowers from China and Tibet, as already made famous by the ‘Marco Polo’ blend. A tea typical of French connoisseurship.”
I really wanted to love this tea, specially since I paid a good amount for it. I hope it grows on me. It has a very sharp taste to it, almost cloyingly perfumed. I like floral teas usually but this just isn't doing it for me. It smells gorgeous, but I can't get behind that flavor.
Great teas
I tried this over ice originally and could not believe how smooth is was. Typically, I add cream to my tea, but this over ice is truly wonderful. I encourage all my friends to try this tea, as it is amazing.
This tea is the best tasting and refreshing tea I think I have ever had. I am looking forward of trying more Mariage Frères.
Very good Tea, not the best Mariage Freres tea still a great tea. It has a clean, light taste that has many different flavors accenting the taste and smell.
