An Amazing Tea Discovery

For Chris’s birthday, Heidi sent her a box of a tea we’d not tried before, “Marco Polo” by the French company Mariage Freres. (Mariage Brothers). It’s packed in muslin teabags, another new-to-us method, and is absolutely amazingly good. Floral, fragrant, smooth and delicious. Even when you re-use the bag a second time.

Highly recommended![](http://fnord.phfactor.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/tb636.jpg)

Info and links:

  1. It’s hard to find, so here’s the company product page for Marco Polo, in English.

  2. Market Hall Foods carries it as well.

  3. Here’s a nice background piece on the company and their Parisian storefront. Sounds lovely.
