Oregano tea, a Moroccan classic that\u2019s not well known here<\/h2>\n

In Morocco, as the evenings grow cooler, mint often gives way in the teapot to other local herbs\u2014and oregano is one of the most beloved. Sultan captures this tradition in a box with its Grain Ambar with oregano: a blend of spiral-rolled green tea leaves that brews quickly, selected specifically for its mildness and amber-colored infusion, enhanced by the warm, slightly peppery aroma of oregano.<\/p>\n

This combination may come as a surprise when you think of oregano on pizza rather than in a teapot\u2014and that\u2019s precisely what makes it so appealing. When brewed, the herb reveals an aromatic, almost floral character that complements the fresh, herbal notes of green tea. A generous, comforting cup, perfect for rounding off a hearty meal and warming up winter evenings.<\/p>\n

Our Tisane Addict Review of Grain Ambar with Oregano<\/h2>\n

This is the kind of tea you recommend out of conviction: though it\u2019s hard to find on most French store shelves, it\u2019s one of the teas that Moroccan families stock up on, box after box, as soon as winter returns. The Ambar base lives up to its reputation\u2014mild and never astringent, provided you rinse the leaves properly\u2014and the oregano is perfectly balanced: noticeable right from the first whiff, without ever tasting like herb soup.<\/p>\n

And if it\u2019s the aroma of oregano alone that appeals to you\u2014without the caffeine in green tea\u2014the same brand offers it as a pure herbal tea: our Pure Sultan Oregano<\/a> features a single-herb blend, perfect for the evening. The two formats complement each other: tea for the table and daytime, and herbal tea for evenings.<\/p>\n

How to prepare it: Moroccan-style or Western-style<\/h2>\n

Moroccan-style: A heaping tablespoon in the teapot, a first rinse with boiling water (which you discard to remove the bitterness), then simmering water, sugar to taste, and a few minutes over low heat before pouring from a height to create foam. Western-style: use one teaspoon per cup, water at around 85 \u00b0C, and let it steep for 3 minutes\u2014the beans open up quickly, so there\u2019s no need to let it steep longer.<\/p>\n

\n
\n

At the end of a hearty meal<\/h3>\n

That\u2019s its traditional role in Morocco: the teapot that comes out after the couscous or tagine, when everyone lingers at the table.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Winter Evenings<\/h3>\n

The warm aroma of oregano makes it the perfect tea for the cold season\u2014the one we reach for as soon as the first frosts arrive.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

With a sprig of mint<\/h3>\n

There's no reason not to add a few fresh leaves: mint and oregano go very well together in the same teapot.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

To receive<\/h3>\n

Served in traditional glasses, it says something to your guests\u2014an original alternative to the same old mint tea.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

FAQ \u2014 Sultan Oregano Amber Grain Green Tea<\/h2>\n
\n

What does \u00abGrain Ambar\u00bb mean at Sultan?<\/h3>\n
\n

Ambar refers to one of the varieties of Sultan green tea: leaves rolled into spirals, in the gunpowder style, which brew quickly, producing an amber-colored infusion\u2014hence the name\u2014and a mild flavor. It is the traditional base for Moroccan mint tea, combined here with oregano.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

 <\/div>\n
\n

Tea with oregano\u2014is that really a Moroccan tradition?<\/h3>\n
\n

Absolutely: in Morocco, green tea isn\u2019t just made with mint. Depending on the season and region, people also infuse it with wormwood (chiba), sage, verbena, or oregano\u2014the latter being particularly popular during the colder months. This Grain Ambar No. 16 recreates this winter recipe just as it\u2019s served in families.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

 <\/div>\n
\n

What does Grain Ambar green tea with oregano taste like?<\/h3>\n
\n

This cup combines the freshness of herbs and the mildness of Ambar green tea with the warm aroma of oregano\u2014aromatic and slightly peppery, with an almost floral note when brewed. Sweetened in the Moroccan style, the blend becomes well-rounded and comforting; unsweetened, it retains a more distinct herbaceous character.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

 <\/div>\n
\n

How do you make this tea the Moroccan way?<\/h3>\n
\n

Place one tablespoon of tea leaves in the teapot, pour in a little boiling water, stir, and discard this first infusion: this rinse removes the surface bitterness. Next, fill the teapot with simmering water, sweeten to taste, let it heat for a few minutes over low heat, then pour from a height to aerate the tea and create its characteristic foam.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

 <\/div>\n
\n

Does Grain Ambar with oregano contain caffeine?<\/h3>\n
\n

Yes: It\u2019s made with green tea as its base, so it naturally contains caffeine, just like any Moroccan tea. It\u2019s the perfect accompaniment to meals and afternoon breaks; for late evenings, a caffeine-free herbal tea is a more natural choice.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

 <\/div>\n
\n

How long does a 150-gram box last?<\/h3>\n
\n

At a rate of about 2.5 g per cup or 5 g per teapot, the 150-g box yields about 60 cups or 30 teapots\u2014enough to last through the entire cold season. Store the seeds in their tightly sealed container, away from light and moisture, to preserve the oregano\u2019s aroma.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
