The product
Description
For 150 g of loose leaf tea, the Boîte Washi Papier · 150 g · Traditionnelle combines a tinplate body, a washi paper covering and a double lid. Each tin is hand-decorated in France for the Esprit Céladon range. Which designs? The tin comes in many designs, each with its own name: Uchiko, Nishi, Kimino, Fukuno, Tamano, Nabari, Oyabe, and more. The product page shows which are in stock at the time of your order. Several tins in different designs also make it easy to recognise each tea at a glance on the shelf. 100 g or 150 g: which size to choose? Choose the capacity according to how much tea you buy at once. The 150 g version suits you when you keep more of the same tea. For a 100 g pack, the Boîte Washi Papier · 100 g · Traditionnelle has the same tinplate, the same washi paper and the same double lid: the less air around the leaves, the better they keep. Where should you store the tin? The right place is a closed, dry cupboard at room temperature, away from the cooker hood, oven, sink and spice shelf. Close both lids after each serving and take out the leaves with a dry spoon. Our guide to storing tea well sets out the precautions specific to green tea, Pu-erh and matcha. The other tins from the house are gathered in the tea tins section.
