"Discover a cloud of flavors... That's what happened to me one warm summer evening as I was leaping headfirst into my twenties. Invited by my boyfriend's parents for dinner, the conversation was lively. As usual, everyone was chatting and sharing their opinions. The atmosphere was relaxed. Once again, his mother offered me a cup of tea to round off the meal. Instinctively, I was about to refuse, then changed my mind and finally accepted her offer. 'I'd love that.' It would be my second cup of tea ever. The first, a mint tea I drank after a trip to the Moroccan desert, hadn't particularly appealed to me. The teapot was placed on the table. Yellow. The aroma of the brewing tea was pleasant. A light rose scent wafted through the air. Would the taste live up to the aroma? I hoped so. I was served." The cup and saucer are matching and from the collection of a great-grandmother of British origin. I taste it. First, just a sip. An intoxicating rose green tea that manages to make me smile. I savor this tender moment and let myself be lulled by the conversation. Today, it's you I'm lulling.

Enjoy your tea!
