Comptoir de Mathilde Discovery Tea and Infusion Set

Tasting Notes of the Curator

This discovery set is an intimate journey through three of Comptoir de Mathilde’s most beloved blends, each chosen for its personality and aromatic depth. Petrouchka, a Russian-style Earl Grey, opens the experience with a bright, assertive fragrance. Its citrus-bergamot notes sit atop a smooth tea base, offering the kind of clarity that wakes both palate and mind. It’s spirited yet elegant—ideal for mornings or thoughtful afternoons.

Décolleté Charnel follows with rooibos made seductive through citrus. Naturally caffeine-free, it offers a round, honeyed softness lifted by zesty fruit. The result is a comforting, amber-coloured cup that feels like a gentle exhale—warming, grounding, and suited for late-night sipping.

Le Jardin de Madou completes the trio with a strawberry-and-rhubarb green tea that leans playful without sacrificing refinement. It’s fragrant, slightly tart, delicately sweet, and reminiscent of spring orchards. Light and refreshing, it’s the kind of tea that brightens the senses without overwhelming them.

Together, the set offers three distinct moods—brisk, soothing, and whimsical—beautifully capturing the diversity of Comptoir de Mathilde’s tea creations.

A French Ritual in Three Sips

Tea is one of France’s quietest pleasures—a ritual of pausing, savouring, and reconnecting with the senses. This trio beautifully captures that cultural rhythm, showcasing blends that range from traditional to playful. From the sophistication of Russian Earl Grey, to the velvety calm of rooibos, to the garden-bright sweetness of strawberry and rhubarb green tea, each recipe reflects the joy of simple indulgence. It’s a discovery set meant not just for tasting but for lingering—one cup at a time, one aromatic moment after another.
