Gorreana Green Tea with Parsley
Pickup currently not available
Gorreana Green Tea with Parsley is a Portuguese green tea with parsley from São Miguel, in the Azores, made by Gorreana, the oldest tea plantation in Europe still in production. An unusual, very green and herbal cup for curious tea lovers.
Tasting notes
Gorreana green tea is typically gentle and fresh, with grassy, lightly sweet notes and very little bitterness. Parsley, salsa in Portuguese, adds a fresh, green, slightly peppery note that makes the tea taste even more of the garden.
Food pairing
Try it with a light lunch: a salad, a fresh goat's cheese or grilled vegetables.
About Gorreana
Gorreana is a tea estate on the north coast of São Miguel, in the Azores. Founded in 1883, it is the oldest tea plantation in Europe still in production. About 32 hectares of tea grow there on volcanic soil, without herbicides, pesticides or fungicides, and the estate handles every step from leaf to packet. The plantation and its factory are open to visitors, one of the loveliest stops on the island.
