    We loved this tea plantation! There's an interesting short video and they serve complimentary tea after in their lovely tea room. The staff was friendly and helpful and obviously enjoyed their jobs. The plantation itself is beautiful, overlooking the ocean and it's so nice to walk out among the tea plants. I bought packages of the Azore blend to take home and it's a very nice tea. Don't miss this!

    Really nice little spot to relax and drink a tea. However there is not much to do there. There is a room where there is a video playing and you can learn more about the fabric. You can also go take a walk in the field where they make the tea grow, you can see it in the pictures. There is also a small garden you can walk next to it and then there is the view from the gallery were you can just sit down and relax. I would say 30 minutes to an hour you can see everything there is to see including drinking the tea. The price are reasonable and the personal are really nice. The atmosphere is also really quiet and peaceful. It's a nice little stop to do it between 2 activities.

    It was an amazing experience to be at this place which is the only tea factory in the whole Europe. The place is so beautiful , as we entered we got to watch a video of the tea factory n the tea plantations. Then we got taste black tea which was free. There were different tea powder packs available which you could purchase if you liked.. staff working there is very kind n friendly. we had lovely time there.

    The only bio tea plantation in Europe. Definitely worth visiting the charming property and the well tended gardens. The views from the deck are captivating and give a sense of pastoral tranquility. Enjoy the brief video explaining the history of the plantation and the refreshing tea tasting which follows.

    A wonderful place steeped in history with a great ocean view. The tea itself on offer is a light, pleasant flavour.

    The history of the plantation is nicely presented, also the degustation at the end. Also it was interesting to see the plantation on a rainy day.

    We enjoyed our visit at the tea factory. It's a beautiful site with great views on the tea plantation and the valley below. Watch a short video about the place and enjoy a free cup of tea which I enjoyed very much.

    Free entry to the old factory. You can watch a movie about the history of the place and you can see sim old tools for tea making. There are no tickets for access, all free. You can buy tea for about 1.5-2 € and some local biscuits. They also have some souvenirs in the small tea room. They are not as busy as their neighbours as they have a smaller parking lot. The view from the terrace is beautiful and the photo spots endless.
