From the Thé des Signes series at Mariage Frères, the Year of the Ox tea: "Inspired by the heroic and protective Ox, MARIAGE FRÈRES has imagined an intense black tea, its roundness sublimated by the luscious notes of sun kissed fruits. Goji berries, the signature ingredient in the THÉ DES SIGNES collection, accentuate the composition with beneficial vitamins. This YEAR OF THE OX tea’s pagoda-shaped tin dazzles with a magnetic colour of Java plum. An enveloping and gourmet cup for a year of serenity and well-being." $45 at ZGO Perfumery in San Francisco.
