Madagascar Escape
Adventurers
Plain black tea

A Madagascar version of Chai: our two spicy teas share cinnamon, vanilla and pepper. Madagascar Escape really highlights the spices of the big island with a dominant Bourbon Vanilla and very sweet cinnamon. The Adventurers tea adds guarana for a slightly earthier profile. Both lend themselves wonderfully to being infused in hot milk!

How to prepare Madagascar Spices Black Tea

  1. Measure: about 2 grams of tea for each 250 ml of water.

  3. Steep: 3 to 5 minutes (up to 7 min for a very full-bodied profile, perfect if you intend to drink it with milk).
  4. Enjoy: filter and let yourself be transported. Wonderful with a cloud of milk, or iced in summer!
