CompositionThe vegetal and floral alliance

The balance of this blend rests on a non-oxidized green tea base, chosen for its aromatic clarity that lets the flowers express themselves without being overwhelmed.

The Sencha foundation

Sencha green tea leaves from Japan are steamed, a process that locks in catechins and vegetal notes. This base provides a silky texture and a slightly iodized freshness typical of Japanese terroirs.

The mallow and rose pairing

Mallow flowers naturally release bluish pigments (anthocyanins) and soothing mucilages, rounding out the cup. Rose petals add a powdery floral note, creating a subtle and balanced aromatic symphony.

ExpertiseMy selection for a serene tea

I formulated this blend to offer an alternative to overly tannic green teas. Here, floral softness guides the tasting.

TipsMy extraction protocol

Reference preparation

Extracting a delicate Sencha requires water between 75°C and 80°C maximum. Use 2.5 grams of blend for 250 ml of water. Infuse for 2 to 3 minutes. Water that is too hot or infusion that is too long would destroy the floral subtlety and make the tea bitter.

Variations

  • Cold Brew version: Let 10g of the blend steep in 1L of cold water in the refrigerator for 6 to 8 hours. The blue of the mallow flowers will be vibrant and the tea will be absolutely smooth.
  • Meditative infusion: Enjoy it plain in a white porcelain cup to fully appreciate the color nuances of the liquor.
The art of sharing: Serve Ciel Bleu during an afternoon tea with friends. The unique color of the infusion and its rose scent immediately create a refined and soothing atmosphere.
FAQFrequently Asked Questions
Color Why does the infusion have bluish reflections?

The bluish color naturally comes from the mallow flowers. Their pigments (anthocyanins) are released when in contact with hot water, creating a unique aesthetic reminiscent of a summer sky, with no artificial coloring.

Theine Can I drink it late in the day?

Sencha green tea contains a moderate amount of theine. Thanks to the presence of L-theanine, the effect is relaxing. For sensitive people, I recommend stopping consumption after 5 p.m.

Taste Is this tea very bitter?

No, provided the water temperature is respected (max 80°C). The mallow flower adds a velvety texture that smooths the natural astringency of green tea.

Re-infusion Can the leaves be re-infused?

Yes, a second infusion of 3 minutes is possible. The profile will be more vegetal and less floral than the first cup.
