Mariage Freres

A French gourmet tea company founded 1854 by two brothers Henri and Edouard Mariage, whose family had participated in the booming tea trade since the 17th century. The business consisted of importing premium quality leaf teas from the Orient, which were then traded to first class hotels and tea shops in France. Endowed with a pre-eminent heritage of tea trading over three centuries, Mariage Frères has created a new universe: that of “French Tea”. They work in a niche, where quality is valued over volume.
