Mint and tea - green tea and fresh mint. Cool and herbal; the scent of Moroccan mint tea, poured from height into a small glass. The vessel is the point. Each Tamegroute candle is poured into a piece thrown by hand by the potters of Tamegroute, in the Draa Valley in southern Morocco - local clay, mineral glaze of copper and manganese, fired in wood-burning kilns that are still loaded by hand. The glaze pools and runs unevenly; it thickens at the rim into small dark drips and thins where the heat passed through. No two are alike. Two colourways. The traditional olive-green, copper-rich and dark. A warmer ochre-yellow, lighter and more honey-toned. Three sizes - a small single-wick, a wider mid-size, and a large multi-wick. Soy wax, Italian cotton wicks, fragrances composed in Grasse. The candle finishes; the vessel doesn't. Exclusive to Australia.
