Lalla Mamina comes softly, like a warm breeze carrying the scent of mint. Wherever she passes, smiles appear and moments linger a little longer. Who is Lalla Mamina, and what magic hides behind her gentle name? Read the incredible story of Lalla Mamina…
The story begins in Fez
It is said that in the heart of a small artisanal workshop in Fez, a master glassmaker once crafted a tea glass unlike any other. Since it was a very special and charming tea glass, he gave it a sweet nickname: Mamina.
From that moment on, she knew she was not just an ordinary tea glass. Her mission was clear: to represent Morocco and its way of life.
Guided by an unspoken promise, she set out on a journey to find the rarest and purest Moroccan mint, a fragrant treasure that, once found, would never leave her side again.
A Journey Across Morocco
For years, Mamina traveled across Morocco from end to end, from the sea breezes of Fnideq to the golden dunes of Dakhla, gliding through the lively alleys of Casablanca, the elegant boulevards of Rabat, and all the way to the distant horizons of Figuig.
In Marrakech, at the Jemaa el-Fna square, she became the storytellers’ companion, attentive to every word and always ready to accompany a beautiful tale.
Further north, Essaouira vibrated to the rhythm of the Gnawa musicians who made their songs echo in her honor. And in the blue alleys of Chefchaouen, she inspired visitors to extend their stay just to savor another fragrant glass of tea.
A Destiny That Crossed the Seas
But one day, driven by curiosity, Mamina set sail and left the Moroccan coasts.
In Spain, she tried flamenco, swirling to the sound of guitars without spilling a single drop. In Paris, she whispered to passersby: “The true art of living is taking the time around a mint tea.”
In Belgium, she tasted the famous crispy fries, sharing tea with a warm smile, while in the Netherlands, she was charmed by the vast tulip fields and windmills, all while sipping her favorite infusion.
Then, in New York, she became the mascot of a trendy café in Brooklyn where they hosted “Mint Tea & Chill” evenings.
An Ambassador with a Contagious Smile
Wherever she set her imaginary feet, Mamina carried the colors of Morocco: the enchanting scents of the souks, the golden calm of the desert, and the contagious Moroccan laughter around a silver tray. She served more than just a drink: she offered a moment of conviviality, a bridge between cultures.
Today, Mamina is recognized as the ambassador of Moroccan tea. So respected and beloved, she is affectionately called Lalla Mamina everywhere.
