The product
Description
This set of 4 Coupes en Verre Oriental, 50 ml comprises four small glass cups with a capacity of 50 ml each. Designed for serving tea in the Oriental manner, they are light in the hand and fully transparent: the colour of the liquor is visible as soon as it is poured.
For which teas?
Their small size lends itself to tasting in small quantities. They suit mint tea as well as shared infusions. The transparency of the glass shows off the shades of the liquor, from the pale green of a Japanese tea to the amber of a black tea, including a green tea from China such as Gunpowder. Among herbal infusions, a mint infusion such as Sérénité d'Orient Menthe Cannelle Bio from Ombelle also has its place.
How do you compose the service?
Four 50 ml cups serve four people per round. To keep the same luminous spirit, pair them with a glass teapot, such as the Finn teapot of 0.9 l with its stainless steel microfilter: it holds enough to fill the cups several times. Our guide to choosing a teapot helps you find the model that suits you.
A gift idea?
The set of four forms a small complete service, to slip into a gift with a tea or an infusion. Other tea objects await you in our accessories section.
