Boutique in Gstaad

Newby Teas Comes to Switzerland

In December 2017, Newby Teas opened its very first European boutique in Gstaad. In the afternoon, it is time to discover this place nestled in the Chalet Chitra. The exterior sets the tone: luxury and elegance. Inside, a unique tea room reveals itself. Light pours through large bay windows and illuminates superb wooden cabinets. They hold colourful, refined tea caddies. In the centre, two tables display transparent teapots, each revealing a tea of a different hue. The colourful, carefully designed packaging immediately catches the eye. In front of the windows, beautiful samovars complete the décor. Tasting time approaches, and impatience grows.

Newby Teas ; Enjoying Gstaad

Gstaad is one of the most prestigious resorts in the Swiss Alps. Its pedestrian village is lined with traditional chalets and luxury boutiques. In winter, the ski area attracts an international clientele. In summer, hikes and mountain lakes take over. A break at Newby Teas fits perfectly into a stroll through the village. Tea lovers will also enjoy this tea collection (in French).

Newby Teas ; Tasting Exceptional Teas

Mango-Strawberry, Tiramisu and Condensed Milk Tea

An expert employee guides the tasting. First tea: a mango-strawberry blend, fresh and pleasant. The house tip: drink it cold, with pieces of fruit. A surprising flavour then tickles the palate: a tiramisu tea. Its taste transports you to Italy, recalling the famous dessert. Another curiosity: a unique tea infused with condensed milk. Not a simple blend, but a true milk tea. An intriguing discovery.

Newby Teas keeps on surprising. Each flavour invites you to travel and warms the heart with every sip. Impossible to remember all the teas tasted, but none disappoints. The afternoon flies by. Petits fours, champagne and local cheeses enhance the experience. Everything is designed to make this moment unforgettable. Since then, a few Newby sachets have joined the blog’s tea collection (in French).
