Gorreana Tea recognized internationally as a "world class" tea is Europe's oldest remaining tea company. Family owned and operated since 1883, when Ermelinda Gago Da Camara and her son Jose-Honorato opened the factory selling the first production of teas grown under the Gorreana name.
Gorreana's teas have remained a staple in European pantries for over a century. Grown in the lush emerald green hills of the Gorreana estate without the use of herbicides, pesticides or fungicides you can rest assured that only the finest fresh picked and packaged tea leaves makes its way to your cup of tea each and every time!
In 2010, Bertha Meireles-Hintze matriarch of the Gorreana tea estate was honored in Sao Miguel with the "Medal of Merit" for her business tenacity, and role in keeping the prestigious tea company a Portuguese family owned company, while celebrating Gorreana's rich history of 125 years of tea producing in Portugal!
Visited by tens of thousands annually, Gorreana's boutique factory and museum located in the county of Ribiera Grande is the perfect place to enjoy a cup of fresh picked tea while admiring the original 'Marshalls' machinery that dates back to the 1840's. The scent of fresh tea and exotic flowers alongside sweeping ocean views is a paradise just as rare as the tea from our historic gardens.
Current owners Hermano Mota and wife Margarida Hintze-Mota take pride in knowing that the same method of production has been in use at Gorreana since it's founding in 1883. So enjoy a cup of Gorreana's single estate teas today and taste why European pantries have been blessed with Gorreana's gourmet organic grown teas for over a century!
