My first Mariage Freres tea. Upon opening the package, the tea smells lemony w/other fruity fragrances. The tea is very tangy but yet not overly strong in lemon flavor. The frangrance from the brewed tea is perfumey and is not even similar to the tea taste…
This would be excellent iced w/a little sugar thrown in….Or even frozen like a sorbet on a hot day…
This is my second green tea I had blended by a French company. And both teas manage to be subtle, sophisticated, and flavorful… At the same time, I can never identify any discrete flavors

Wondering where everyone gets their Mariage Freres? Do you order through a third party online retailer? Or do you have a place like Williams Sonoma that you go in person?
Try culturedcup.com (in Dallas)
They even sell 1oz. amounts for ~$5.00 (depending on the MF blend) so you can try a variety before placing an order. They have a HUGE selection (but were out of Marco Polo when I placed my order). Shipping was generally prompt and the tea arrived in those heavy duty black ziploc bags. I believe that if you purchase a tea in the larger amounts they can send you one of those MF tins…
Tea-filled blessings to you Lori! Will visit culturecup for sure! Thanks! and boy do I sure love those tins! Starting to collect tea tins (like I don’t have enough teaware and accessories already! Sheesh!) ;)
