About the Initiators

Chá Camélia

Fornelo/Portugal

My name is Nina Gruntkowski, in 2011 I moved from Germany to Portugal and than I switched from radio journalism to tea farming. Fascinated by winter-blooming camellias, I learned the tea plant (Camellia sinensis) belongs to the same family and immediately dreamed of producing tea here. Inspired by tea masters from Japan and Taiwan, I express our unique local terroir in the artisanal teas.
