About the DOURO Tea Press

Brew with style, courtesy of the DOURO Tea Press. This innovative porcelain teapot with infuser is based on our French press brewing system to ensure an exceptionally pure and refreshing taste.

Part of our unique range celebrating the Douro Valley, this porcelain teapot has a simple, elegant design, its fine grooves reminiscent of the rolling wine terraces of Portugal’s most celebrated wine region. Available in premium black or white porcelain, the design is complemented by an oak handle, which adds a contemporary twist and showcases the natural materials of the region.

Tea brewed in the DOURO Tea Press tastes every bit as good as the teapot looks. The French press system offers complete control over the steeping process – once your tea has reached its preferred strength simply depress the plunger to stop the tealeaves brewing. Perfect for use with loose-leaf tea or teabags, this porcelain teapot with infuser takes precision brewing to a whole new level.

Use & Care

1. Place the DOURO tea press on a flat, heat-proof, non-slip surface
2. Add your preferred tealeaves into the filter. We recommend 2-3 scoops of black tea or 3 scoops of herbal tea for each liter of water.
3. Pour in hot water, ensuring the water stays below the MAX fill line.
4. Place the lid on the pot with the plunge in the raised position, and let your tea brew – 3-5 minutes for black tea, or 5-10 minutes for herbal and fruit teas.
5. Once your tea is at its preferred strength, firmly press the plunger down to stop the brewing process. Serve and savor.
6. Wash in warm, soapy water before first use and after each subsequent use.
