Sparkling Tea

Sometimes elegant, sometimes full-bodied. Sometimes dry, sometimes with a hint of sweetness. And then again surprisingly floral – almost like a stroll through distant tea gardens. Sparkling teas combine clarity and depth; they are vibrant, finely structured, carried by the tension of their effervescence.

Their foundation consists of high-quality teas – black, green, oolong (Camellia sinensis) – or so-called tisanes, regional herbs blended with blossoms, peels, and other botanicals. Temperature and time determine the precision: this allows the aroma and texture to develop without overpowering bitterness. Some blends are balanced with fine fruit juice or a touch of sugar to create body and length. Their character is not achieved through fermentation – unlike wine proxies.

Then comes what defines sparkling tea: carbonation – not as an effect, but as an architectural element. It opens up the structure, unlocks aromas. This creates beverages that are allowed to play: from mineral and straightforward to warm, tart, or floral.

OUR PERSPECTIVE

For their Lemon Verbena & Quince, Amrei Pelzer and her team (Griesel & Compagnie) blend a base of lemon verbena tea and high-quality quince juice. A touch of celeriac and hops adds extra depth, complexity, and umami. On the nose, lemon verbena is the dominant aroma, but the quince notes are also present. The hops contribute slightly bitter notes. The palate is refreshing with every sip. The fruit flavors are by no means overpowering, but rather delicate and elegant. There's not a hint of sugar here. As the lemon and fruit notes slowly fade, the subtle celeriac and hops begin to add further depth to the drink – again, not at all excessive. A simply beautiful finish.

Von Wiesen - Verbena & Quince BEHIND THE SCENE'S

PRODUCTION

An infusion of verbena forms the tea base, with quince juice providing the fruity core. A small portion of celeriac-based extract, obtained through lactic acid fermentation of fresh celeriac pieces in brine, is added to give the beverage structure. After blending, the drink is carbonated and bottled.

OCCASION & MOMENT

MORE ABOUT VON WIESEN

Von Wiesen lives up to its name: a blend of wines from the meadows, gardens, and orchards of the region. Tea and herbal extracts, direct juices, and gently fermented beverages combine to create clear, botanical cuvées with a fine perlage. They are among the first in the German-speaking world to have consistently developed such regional blends.
