Gorreana Green Tea with Hibiscus, Loose Leaf

Gorreana Green Tea with Hibiscus, Loose Leaf is a Portuguese green tea with hibiscus, in loose leaf, from São Miguel, in the Azores, made by Gorreana, the oldest tea plantation in Europe still in production. A ruby cup with a gentle tang, lovely hot and wonderful over ice.

Tasting notes

Gorreana green tea is typically gentle and fresh, with grassy, lightly sweet notes and very little bitterness. Hibiscus adds a deep red colour and a lively, slightly tart flavour of red berries and cranberry.

Food pairing

Serve it with fruit tarts, a slice of chocolate cake or a fresh fruit salad. Iced, it is great with a summer lunch.
