a visit to the french village of giverny was the inspiration behind this chocolaty tisane. and why not, giverny was the inspiration for some of the world’s best-known paintings. the famous french impressionist claude monet called the village home for nearly 45 years and painted some of his best-known works there. the pretty little spot is built along two streets running up a hillside lined with low houses covered in wisteria and virginia creeping vines – it is an exceptionally beautiful place. but even more beautiful is monet’s garden, tucked in behind his old chateau. to say it is lush is an understatement – broad leafy trees, flowers of every color and tropical plants literally fill every corner. the garden is built around a pond crisscrossed by a number of japanese-style footbridges and filled with koi. to laze away a warm afternoon there is like spending the day in heaven itself.

it is that feeling that we have tried to capture in this wonderful tea. based on a south african rooibos, the blend offers mellow herbal notes, offset by tones of rich chocolate reminiscent of a traditional french chocolat chaud, (monet’s favorite). brew a pot today and we’re sure you’ll find this tea to be a work of art in itself. fantastic served hot or over a tall glass of ice, giverny is bound to become one of your favorites. a votre santé!
