La Tsarine – A Jewel Box of Exceptional Teas in the Heart of Geneva
Established in December 2011 in the heart of Calvin’s city, La Tsarine is far more than a tea shop – it’s an invitation to travel, a sensory interlude dedicated to discerning tea lovers and curious souls in search of refined discoveries.
Set in an elegant and welcoming space, this family-run boutique offers a unique experience in Geneva: a face-to-face encounter between two icons of French tea culture, Dammann Frères and Mariage Frères. A prestigious pairing that allows guests to explore both timeless classics and bold new blends.
But La Tsarine goes even further. With a true passion for authenticity and rarity, the boutique features a carefully curated selection of Yunnan pu-erh teas and Taiwanese oolongs, sourced directly from their regions of origin. A rare opportunity to discover exceptional, little-known crus chosen with meticulous care.
The soul of the shop draws inspiration from a certain art de vivre, celebrating the elegance of St. Petersburg porcelain and refined tasting accessories. Of particular note: the exquisite collection of Dunoon mugs and teapots, a tribute to the finesse of English craftsmanship.
A true hidden gem for tea enthusiasts – where every cup tells a story.
