Description

Le Temps Retrouvé is a delicate blend of Yunnan black tea (China) with honey and woody notes and roasted green tea Bancha Hojicha (Japan), which provides a gourmet veil due to its roasted notes. This tea is inspired by Marcel Proust's famous literary episode: In Search of Lost Time, in which the author is immediately transported to his past with a sip of tea mixed with a piece of cake.

Enjoy the new afternoon tea, which goes great with a sweet snack.

This is my very favorite tea. I am sharing with my friends in the Virginia Camellia Society on Thursday afternoon.
