HAPPY PLANTES
Read moreEverything changed in 2023: Amaya, the founder, decided to hand over the running of the business to Camille and Delphine. They continue to develop infusions based on organic and local plants. The ranges are simple: pure plants or blends, classified by virtue (soothing, digestive, tonic, skin beauty...). Nothing goes to waste: the powder from the cuttings is used in solid cosmetics. Gone are the days of the Volvic store; today, their products can be purchased from a number of retailers or online during short sales.
LE RENDEZ-VOUS DES THÉS
Read moreThis tea room, imagined by Eliane Bourdet, opened in 2004, is articulated on two levels. Three hundred varieties of tea are on sale, as well as a beautiful collection of dishes, utensils, furniture and decorative objects. Different areas to sit comfortably make us travel through Asia, through India, China or Japan. We enjoy a cup of tea, infusion or coffee, accompanied by a "homemade" pastry. The long window lets light filter through, giving the place a subdued atmosphere and a feeling of intimacy.
