Saveur PimenThé ; Storing Spices and Teas Properly

Spices and teas fear light, heat and humidity. An airtight, opaque tin protects them effectively. It is also best to store them away from the hob. Whole spices keep longer than ground spices. Grinding them at the last moment releases all their aromas. To expand your collection, La Route des Épices in Lutry (in French) also offers a fine selection.

Saveur PimenThé ; A Journey of Flavours

This shop is the ideal place to discover rare and little-known flavours. The experience goes well beyond simple shopping. Every corner is full of products that awaken the taste buds of the most curious. The team’s advice helps you choose the tea or spice that suits each craving. Water temperature, brewing time or dosage: every detail counts to reveal the aromas. Spices, for their part, liven up an everyday dish in an instant. Buying in bulk also has a practical advantage: buying just the right amount, without unnecessary packaging. As a gift, a lovely tin of tea or a spice blend always pleases.

One particularly magical moment is not to be missed: Tuesday, coffee roasting day. The smell that then fills the air is absolutely unique. Warm, rich and slightly toasted, the aroma fills the space and creates a bewitching atmosphere.
