Blend No. 006
THE BOTTICELLI DUO
Tea composed
like a painting
Two blends, composed after two paintings.
Sandro Botticelli filled his canvases with real botanicals. Primavera alone holds some five hundred plant species, painted so precisely that scholars still identify them by name. We read those gardens as a recipe.
Each blend is composed after the painting that names it, drawn from the flowers Botticelli set down five centuries ago. Two teas made to be tasted the way you'd read a canvas: by color, by composition, by what stays with you.
Inspired by
Botticelli's “Primavera” (c. 1482)
006 Primavera
An herbal blend, composed after the painting's layered abundance. Chamomile brings warmth, hibiscus a vivid floral brightness, lemon myrtle lifts, and rose softens the whole. Together they steep into something meadow-like: fresh, structured, alive.
Tasting notes
Chamomile flower, bright hibiscus, lemon zest.
Chamomile · Hibiscus · Lemon Myrtle · Rose
Inspired by
Botticelli's “The Birth of Venus” (c. 1485)
007 Birth of Venus
A green blend, composed after the painting's coastal clarity. The quiet umami of organic green tea echoes the mineral edge of the sea, while rose and cornflower trace the same florals that frame Venus as she rises. Fresh, balanced, luminous.
Tasting notes
Green tea leaf, ocean air, garden rose.

THE DUO
Two paintings, one collection
Primavera for spring in the garden. Birth of Venus for the summer on the water. The whole warm season, composed as a pair.
