80g Orange Pekoe Premium Black Tea – Porto Formoso Azores – Organic Loose Leaf
Discover the elegance of Porto Formoso Orange Pekoe Premium Black Tea, a refined organic loose leaf tea produced in the northern mountains of São Miguel Island, Azores, by one of Europe’s most distinctive tea factories.
This premium Orange Pekoe is obtained exclusively from the terminal bud and first young leaf of the Camellia sinensis (China variety), carefully hand-picked and traditionally processed to preserve its intense fragrance and delicate yet rich flavor. The tightly rolled black leaves produce a deep, aromatic infusion with remarkable smoothness and character.
Porto Formoso tea plantation follows a completely organic production method, making it the first organic tea in the Azores and the only certified organic tea production in Europe. Grown in volcanic soil under a mild Atlantic climate, this tea benefits from ideal natural conditions that enhance leaf quality and aromatic complexity.
Harvesting takes place from May to September, during periods of reduced rainfall, allowing slow leaf growth and superior quality. All production stages — from picking to infusion processing — are performed through natural, additive-free methods, resulting in a tea with exceptional purity, scent, and taste.
This Orange Pekoe is a high-mountain black tea of superior quality, offering an intense fragrance, a rich infusion, and a delicately refined finish. Ideal for an elegant afternoon tea, it is also excellent for those who appreciate a bold yet smooth cup — and makes a wonderfully refreshing iced tea.
Experience organic Azorean tea at its finest with Porto Formoso Orange Pekoe Premium Black Tea.
