The
Collection

Lineup to be announced — 2026 launch

Préambule

Place and the maker's hand — drop by drop

The collection of NEIGE & THÉ is composed of four lines, each playing its own part within a course. Tea carries the basso continuo. Herbal extends the dish's afterglow. Fruits & Veg converse with the plate in three voices. Infusion layers complexity into a single cup. Place, translated into the non-alcoholic.

L'Infusion du Thé

Tea

One leaf — one terroir.

Origin, cultivar, the moment of picking, the way the leaf is rolled — along these four axes a tea leaf changes its expression. The depth of wakōcha, the umami of gyokuro, the green of sencha, the roasted warmth of hōjicha — a cup that answers the dish, quietly, within the course. Tea carries the basso continuo of the table.

Les Herbes Japonaises

Herbal

Aromatics — drawing the dish's afterglow into a longer line.

The volatile aromatics of Japanese herbs and spices become a second voice for a dish's own scent. Not a veil laid over the plate, but a hand that lifts it gently from behind. Duck and venison game, steamed white-fleshed fish, root vegetables simmered slow — for the moments where aroma raises the saturation of the plate.

Fruits & Légumes

Fruits & Veg

Sweetness, acidity, bitterness — three voices in conversation with the plate.

Within fruit and vegetables lie folded layers of sweetness, acidity, bitterness, and umami. Through cold extraction and careful calibration of concentration, those layers are rewoven into a single bottle. As a light acidity for the opening courses, as a bitterness that resets the fat of a meat dish — it orders the course from within.

L'Infusion Composée

Infusion

Layer upon layer — until the cup belongs to no one else.

Tea, fruit, herbs, spices from beyond Japan — aromatics layered in depth become a cup that exists nowhere else. To kitchens without the time to develop their own mocktails, we bring a cup of real complexity in a ready-extracted bottle. Its strength is that the layers of complexity can be composed to follow the arc of the whole course.

Each first cup enters the catalogue only once it is complete — welcomed in, one by one.
