Dammann Frères Jardin Bleu Black Tea Bags

Tasting Notes of the Curator

Jardin Bleu is instantly recognizable—an aromatic black tea that balances depth with vibrant fruitiness. As it steeps in the Cristal® sachet, the infusion reveals a deep amber hue, releasing a fragrant bouquet that feels both lush and inviting.

The first impression is bright and expressive. Notes of strawberry and wild strawberry rise to the forefront, bringing a soft, rounded sweetness. This is quickly followed by the distinctive presence of rhubarb, which adds a gentle tartness and a slightly green, almost crisp edge that keeps the blend from becoming overly sweet.

The black tea base provides structure and warmth. It is smooth and full-bodied without heaviness, offering subtle malty undertones that anchor the fruit notes. This balance between richness and brightness is what gives Jardin Bleu its signature appeal.

As the infusion develops, the fruit softens into a more jam-like character, while the rhubarb continues to provide lift and clarity. The texture is clean and satisfying, with no bitterness when brewed properly. The Cristal® sachet allows the leaves and ароматics to fully expand, resulting in a clear, well-defined cup.

The finish is fragrant, lightly sweet, and lingering, leaving a delicate impression of red fruits and soft acidity.

Brew this ideally at 90°C. Steep for 4–5 minutes.
