THE STORY

The company was established by Dr Antonio Sequeira for the production of feni, a Goan alcoholic drink made from coconut or cashew. The family started to produce wine in 1985 and currently have two manufacturing facilities in Goa, using grapes grown in Baramati, Nashik, Indapur and Sangli in the state of Maharashtra.

 

The wines produced under the brand name of Susegad are avoided by most tourists in Goa. Tonia also produces a number of Indian ports. It apparently has an import portfolio but, despite repeated requests, I was given no opportunity to visit even though I winter in Goa every year.
