The aromatic profile of Lolita
Open the pouch and the fragrance is immediate: a burst of ripe strawberry, backed by the tangy freshness of orange and a delicate powdery hint of violet. The green Sencha leaves and silver buds of Pai Mu Tan provide a soft, vegetal base with no bitterness.
On the top notes, strawberry takes centre stage, lush and juicy, like fruit picked at the peak of ripeness. The natural strawberry aroma blends with visible pieces of fruit in the mix for a rounded, natural flavour.
In the heart, orange peel and natural orange aroma unfold a livelier fruity note that brightens the whole composition. Mallow and passionflower weave a discreet, almost velvety floral backdrop.
On the finish, violet leaves a powdery, lightly sweet signature in the cup, reminiscent of old-fashioned sweets. Olive leaves extend the vegetal softness, while a touch of lavender adds the subtlest aromatic freshness.
The liquor is clear, golden and light on the palate. Ideal for anyone still hesitating between a classic green tea and something more aromatic. If you enjoy candied citrus notes, try our orange peel and mandarin blends for another fruity adventure.
How to brew Lolita green tea
Preparation makes all the difference. Sencha is a delicate green tea, so the water should never be boiling: it would scorch the leaves and draw out unnecessary bitterness.
Which water? Use low-mineral, soft water, ideally filtered. Heat it to 75-80°C. If you don't have a temperature-controlled kettle, bring the water to a gentle simmer, then leave it to rest uncovered for 2 minutes.
How much? Use 12 to 15 g per litre, roughly one heaped teaspoon per 250 ml cup. Adjust to taste: a little more for a stronger brew, a little less for something lighter and more delicate.
How long? An infusion of 2 to 3 minutes is all you need. Steeping longer can make the Sencha more astringent and mask the floral notes.
Which accessories? A glass or porcelain teapot with a wide filter, so the leaves, strawberry pieces and flowers have room to open up fully. A narrow metal infuser compresses the blend and dulls the flavour.
For an iced version, double the quantity, cold-brew in the refrigerator for 1 hour, then strain: the strawberry and orange come through beautifully. Enjoy this blend as part of your daily ritual, warm in the morning or chilled in the afternoon.
Storage
Keep your Lolita tea away from air, light, moisture and strong odours, in an airtight, opaque container. Always reseal after each use: the natural aromas of strawberry, orange and lavender are volatile and deserve to be protected. Consumed within 12 months of opening, this tea will deliver its full fruity freshness.
