Bal Masqué

Black Fruit Blend by Mariage Frères

The fascination of an operatic ‘Ballo in Maschera’– lavender from Provence and vanilla from Mauritius are disguised by elegant veils of colonial fruit.

A sophisticated fragrance makes for an enchanting tea.

1 Tasting Note

The vanilla note is very subtle, overpowered by the lavender. I might need to try serving this in different ways and it might grow on me more – although it reminds me of spa facials as the lavender is quite pronounced. I’m going to try it as an iced tea – which will probably suit it.
