Mariage Frères - Grand Coffret Henri - 18 Tea Gift Box

18 fabulous grand crus and blended teas Whether traveling the world in search of the finest teas or presenting the gems he found to his prestigious clients back in Paris, Henri Mariage always kept on him one of his magnificent sample cases (an example of which is on display in the Tea Museum at the historic shop in the Marais, at 30 rue du Bourg-Tibourg in Paris). Each handsome round tin evokes the esthetic of the original 19th century labels where Henri Mariage wrote - in his beautiful handwriting, in purple ink and with a goose quill pen - the poetic names of his teas.

Mariage Freres is France's oldest tea house, founded in Paris on June 1, 1854 by brothers Henri and Edouard Mariage. The family's tea trade stretches back to 1660, when their ancestors voyaged on behalf of King Louis XIV and the French East India Company. Today, with a collection of over 1,000 teas, Mariage Freres treats tea the way the French treat wine: with reverence for terroir, vintage, and the art of blending. Their Jardin Premier label guarantees the purest quality, sourced directly from the planter.
