Comptoir's words
"The combination of sweet mango and lively maracujá (passion fruit) is one of the pillars of Brazilian flavors. In this Sun of Brazil Black Tea, we wanted to capture this warmth, this vibrant energy and this conviviality found in the markets of Minas Gerais. A comforting tea that instantly brightens your day."
Our view on this tea
This tea was imagined from Brazil, in Minas Gerais. Mango and passion fruit — the maracujá — are not abstract aromas for us: it's the taste of everyday life. We squeeze the maracujá in the morning into juice, make mousses and caipirinhas with it. It is a tart, deep fruit, with an elegant bitterness in the seeds, which we wanted to find in the cup.
Our company is Franco-Brazilian: we export açaí, acerola and guarana from Brazil, while working between the plantations and the markets. This Sun of Brazil is kind of the bridge between these two worlds — a beautiful base of black tea dressed with the fruits that rock Brazilian daily life. It is the perfect tea to give a taste of Brazil to someone who has never been there.
Passion fruit and mango, two emblems of Brazil
Brazil is one of the world's largest producers of passion fruit (Passiflora edulis, the maracujá). The plant, a climbing vine native to South America, produces a spectacular flower — the "passion flower" — so named by 16th century Jesuit missionaries who saw in its structure the symbols of the Passion of Christ. In Brazil, maracujá is everywhere: juices, mousses, desserts, cocktails.
Mango (Mangifera indica), although originally from South Asia, has perfectly acclimatized to the Brazilian Northeast, notably in the São Francisco Valley, which has become a major export region. Its golden, sweet and fragrant flesh is one of the emblematic fruits of the tropical summer. Bringing these two fruits together on a full-bodied black tea is capturing the Brazilian contrast in a cup: the lively acidity of the maracujá and the sunny sweetness of the mango.
Comparative Sensory Analysis
Sun of Brazil vs Carioca vs Adventurers
Three Brazilian-inspired teas from the range
The fruitiest and sunniest of the black teas: the Sun of Brazil goes all out on the tropical passion-mango card, without spicy bitterness. The Carioca (which is a green tea) shares this fruity liveliness but bets on orange; the Adventurers (black tea), on the other hand, go for a very spicy, peppery and earthy register with guarana. This Sun is the most "Brazilian fruit juice" of the black tea range.
