2000 ANS D'ÉCRITURE

Le Thé des Ecrivains® 2000 ans d'Ecriture

The book-keeping inscriptions on the clay tablets of the Mesopotamia of the 6th millennium before B.C., the Egyptian hieroglyphs and Chinese calligraphy of the 2nd millennium before our time... The legends and poetry inspired by these writings fascinate man who sometimes tends to see them as divine gifts.

As a tribute to this beautiful human adventure, the Thé des Ecrivains decided to re-assemble traditional flavours to create a very special tea:

2000-years-of-writing blend: green tea flavoured with cinnamon and honey, offered with two bags of spices, cardamom and cinnamon sticks.

Dive with delight into a dazzling re-transcription of every sensation with this exquisite new taste.

Recommended preparation: sprinkle a pinch of tea, add a few grains of cardamom to enhance and some cinnamon bark for colour's sake. Let it boil for a few minutes and add sugar. Seep through and serve.

Net weight: for 100g of tea, 5g of cardamom and 5g of cinnamon.
