Old world values take on new meaning at the Hôtel Plaza Athénée, New York. The American introduction of Thieme's Achte Thee will give New Yorkers and visitors alike the opportunity to feel, smell, and taste various genuine tea specialties and join the five thousand year old tradition of tea drinkers.
Developed in the Netherlands by Tea Master, Karel Christiaan, Thieme's Echte Thee offers genuine tea for the connoisseur.
These teas represent a top of the range selection; the unique infusing system sets the teas a world apart from any existing American teas. After the first cup is poured, the level of the liquid in the teapot is below the infuser inside which prevents the leaves from soaking too long. These flavorful teas are made with soft, pure water specifically chosen for its low mineral content. The carefully designed teapot works on a system of reversed osmosis creating a true experience for the senses.
A tea card allows tasters to choose from twenty-two different varieties of tea ranging from traditional Earl Grey, to specialties such as "China White Monkey" and "Java Dry Monsoon." For passengers arriving from a long flight, the Hotel Plaza Athenee invites its guests to regain energy with Thiemes's world famous Anti-Jet Lag Blend.
Recommendations vary from sweet, mild, strong, or brisk according to your mood of the day. Allow the specially trained staff at the Hotel Plaza Athenee's "Arabelle" to help you choose a tea that is right for your mood. The Hôtel Plaza Athénée, New York is the only hotel in the United States, and only the fourth luxury hotel worldwide, to offer Thieme's Echte Thee and this special presentation.
