Desert Oasis – ORGANIC
Close your eyes. You're sitting on a Berber carpet, in the shade of a medina, and someone hands you a steaming glass filled with mint green tea. The first sip awakens, the second soothes.
The Desert Oasis – ORGANIC is our interpretation of the great Oriental classic: an organic flavoured green tea with spearmint, inherited from the Moroccan tradition of mint tea shared among friends and family. A timeless recipe that spans centuries.
Tasting Profile
When steeped, the rolled leaves of our organic Chinese green tea release a pale gold liquor, clear and light. On the nose, spearmint dominates with an intense and natural menthol freshness, supported by the gentle vegetal notes of green tea. On the palate, the attack is lively and thirst-quenching, the perfect balance between the roundness of the tea and the vigour of the mint. The finish is clean, crisp, almost creamy — without any bitterness.
When to Enjoy It?
Desert Oasis is savoured hot after a meal to aid digestion (its mint gently stimulates), or iced in summer for an incomparably refreshing drink. It's also the ideal tea for moments of sharing: poured from a height into Moroccan-style glasses, it becomes a convivial ritual. With its organic certification, you can savour it with complete peace of mind.
Gourmet Pairings
Sublime with Oriental pastries (gazelle horns, baklavas, ghoribas), it also pairs wonderfully with fresh fruit salad, Greek yogurt with honey, or a simple square of dark chocolate.

Did you know? In Morocco, they say that "the first glass is bitter like life, the second is sweet like love, the third is gentle like death". Mint tea is much more than a drink — it's a symbol of hospitality.
