Mariage Frères Étoile Mystérieuse Black Tea

Words from Mariage Frères: "A true MARIAGE FRÈRES icon, the sumptuous dessert sheathed in a scarlet glaze of red fruits set on a French meringue with a raspberry coulis inspired this delicious black tea, warm with notes of patisserie. Shimmering, and mysteriously gourmand."
