Description
Legend has it that in China’s Guangxi region, you could drink a tea so sweet that after just a few sips you felt relaxed and serene, as if you’d had a hot bath or massage. On returning from the battlefields, the warlords savoured this delicious drink with euphoria. It was named “Ling Shu”, which means “spiritual pivot” in Mandarin.
Today, Thés de la Pagode brings you all the beneficial properties of Ling Shu, an Oolong tea enriched with saffron, lemon balm and orange blossom.
Contrary to popular belief, tea is not only a stimulant due to the presence of theine. Tea leaves also contain an amino acid called “theanine” which is known for its relaxing and calming effects. It generates completely natural alpha waves in the brain which have relaxing properties (the same waves released during a massage or hot bath). Tea has a soothing effect thanks to the presence of theanine.
Ling Shu is an Oolong tea, which has a relaxing effect on the body.
Actifs Bio Concentrés® patent
This tea was developed according to the original Actifs Bio Concentrés® patented process (or ABC patent); a unique process which concentrates and binds active plant extracts directly to tea leaves. These extracts are released when infused, making this type of tea more effective than a classic herbal infusion.

Manufacturing secrets
A precious plucking
Thés de La Pagode® respects an age-old tradition to ensure that all the benefits of tea are preserved. Indeed, the quality and fragrance of a tea are determined, among other things, by the type of leaf picked. In spring, in the gardens of Thés de la Pagode®, the "Imperial Plucking" is practiced: the pluckers select only the bud ("Pekoe" in Mandarin) and the first leaf. Another technique used is "fine picking". In this case, the pickers remove the bud and the first two leaves.
