In the 1950's, Jean Jumeau-Lafond gave new life to flavoured teas by enriching the ever fashionable Earl Grey recipe. A blend named Goût Russe Douchka ensues from his passion and genius. An intimate creation, this blend was inspired by his wife who used to add an orange slice to her cup of Earl Grey, giving a touch of sweetness to the smooth and delicate liquor. Since that time, Dammann Frère's experts continue to combine talent and inspiration to associate the character of our own Chines and Ceylon black teas with fruits, flowers and spices sourced from all over the world.
