This
green tea-based brew originates in a traditional Turkish
recipe, flavored with orange blossoms, rose petals,
red fruits and green dates. When drinking it, we inhale
before each sip; as with wine, scent is essential
to its flavor. It is elegant, comforting and soft
without being weak, with a warmth that mellows the
grassiness of the green tea. We suspect its distinctive
flavor, which inspired our high rating, comes from
the dates. Les Palais des Thés' top seller
out of over 250 teas, Thé du Hammam can be
purchased loose or in muslin sachets. For more information, visit Le
