Vietnamese Tea

The tea tradition is as deeply rooted in Vietnam as in other Asian countries. Dating back over 3000 years, it embodies the Vietnamese art of living. Known as Che or Tra, Vietnamese tea is an unfermented tea. Green tea is the most consumed locally, although Vietnam also produces white tea. Prepared only with the youngest shoots of the tea plant, it is a mild tea with vegetal notes that is mainly blended with flowers: jasmine, lotus, or chrysanthemum.

Vietnamese tea, a rarity with surprising freshness

Most Vietnamese tea plantations are located in the DàLat region. Situated in the south of the country, this mountainous region benefits from a mild climate particularly conducive to the cultivation of Camellia Sinensis. With very little temperature variation and a decidedly temperate climate, the area is ideal for tea plants to thrive. The productions, often small in scale, offer varied teas with delicate and original flavors. The tea leaves are hand-picked and gently rolled to perfectly preserve their vegetal flavor. While Vietnamese green tea is the most common, Vietnam also produces some white teas that are true rarities. Vietnamese tea stands out for its high quality and unique flavors. It develops soft and fresh aromas that will delight enthusiasts while remaining very accessible.

What is the best Vietnamese tea?

Vietnam is renowned for its fragrant teas with floral flavors. While the country also produces plain tea, the Vietnamese show a particular affection for flower-scented teas. The delicate green tea leaves are infused with lotus or jasmine using a traditional method that requires nearly a month of work. It takes 1400 stamens to prepare just 1 kilo of jasmine tea, which also explains its high price.
