Gold, the color Gustave Eiffel originally chose for his tower, in tribute to the blond stone of Paris. That is the shade of the Jardin du Trocadéro Candy Box, a collectible metal box from Dammann Frères, one of France’s oldest tea houses, founded in 1692. Inside is a Chinese green tea flavored with rhubarb, strawberry, and wild strawberry and adorned with flower petals, light and refreshing, with a bright, fruity cup. A fresh Parisian keepsake and a fine gift for lovers of Paris and fine tea; serve it iced in summer, with fresh strawberries.
