In the Little Venice of Berry

The NANA1807 House in an Exceptional Tea Room

In the soft light of late afternoon, Argenton-sur-Creuse , the little Venice of Berry, unfolds its ancient facades along the Creuse River. At 14 rue du Point du Jour , a new place is already attracting lovers of refined flavors and moments of tranquility: La Comtesse aux pieds nus (The Barefoot Countess), a tea room where time seems to flow more slowly.

The tea room is distinguished by its selection of items related to tea and the art of entertaining : tableware, accessories, and gourmet sweet treats. At the tables, guests can enjoy homemade pastries or a vegetarian brunch, accompanied by a cup of tea, in an elegant and welcoming setting.

Here, every cup of Organic Berry Mint Tea becomes an experience where taste, culture and hospitality meet.

Stéphanie Becker | An Attentive and Visionary Hostess

Behind this unique place is Stéphanie Becker , a nurse by profession, passionate about reading and travel, who long dreamed of a space where one could enjoy a cup of tea while immersing oneself in culture. After two and a half years of planning and the opportunity to acquire a space in the heart of the city center, her dream has become a reality: a tea room where conviviality, well-being, and authenticity come together.

The Meeting with the NANA1807 House

It is in this refined setting that Maison NANA1807 , a tea house born from the Moroccan heritage of mint tea and Mouima's love for the Berry region, as expressed by her guardian of traditions , makes its debut. For the first time in Berry, a tea room offers the opportunity to taste, serve, and take away the creations of this tea house , which showcases organic mint tea from Berry .

Among the first tastings, the ONE&ONLY Fruity Mint White Tea was an immediate hit: "A delight," confided Stéphanie Becker after a few sips, like a promise of new discoveries to share with her customers. The herbaceous freshness of the mint intertwines with the fruity sweetness, and the cup becomes a story: that of an art of living where hospitality and refinement are one.

An Emblematic Collaboration for Berry

This first introduction of Organic Mint Tea from Berry in a local tea room embodies the mission of Maison NANA1807 : to unite tradition, terroir, and expertise to offer authentic, wholesome, and meaningful products. Here, each cup becomes an experience, a connection, an encounter —an invitation to discover the true taste of mint tea.

The Discreet Luxury of Time Regained

Stepping through the door of La Comtesse aux pieds nus (The Barefoot Countess ) is like rediscovering the pleasure of slowing down and savoring every moment. A warm and elegant setting invites you to relax, enjoy, and share with loved ones, in a place where culture and the art of tea blend delicately.

In this often discreet Berry region, the encounter between a place, a woman and Maison NANA1807 is already creating a new chapter in the art of Organic Mint Tea from Berry , inviting each visitor to live an unforgettable sensory and cultural experience.
