Desert Oasis – BIO
Close your eyes. You're sitting on a Berber rug, in the cool shade of a medina, and someone hands you a smoky glass brimming with mint green tea. The first sip awakens the senses, the second brings pure calm.
Our Desert Oasis – BIO is a loving tribute to the great oriental classic: an organic flavoured green tea with spearmint, drawing on the Moroccan tradition of mint tea shared among friends and family. A timeless recipe that has endured through the centuries.
Tasting Profile
Once infused, the rolled leaves of our organic Chinese green tea release a clear, delicate, pale-gold liquor. On the nose, spearmint takes centre stage with an intense, naturally menthol freshness, gently underpinned by the soft vegetal notes of the green tea. On the palate, the attack is lively and thirst-quenching, striking a perfect balance between the tea's roundness and the mint's vibrant punch. The finish is clean and crisp, almost creamy — with no trace of bitterness.
When to Enjoy It
Desert Oasis is delightful hot after a meal to aid digestion (its mint gently stimulates), or iced in summer for an unbeatably refreshing drink. It's also the perfect tea for moments of togetherness: poured from height into traditional Moroccan glasses, it becomes a warm and convivial ritual. With its organic certification, you can savour every sip with complete peace of mind.
Perfect Pairings
Wonderful alongside oriental pastries (gazelle horns, baklava, ghoriba), it also pairs beautifully with a fresh fruit salad, Greek yoghurt drizzled with honey, or simply a square of dark chocolate.

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