It's the only tea plantation in Europe. 
If that's not interesting enough, go to find out more about its history, try the bergamot and jasmine teas, or sample pastéis: regular (de nata), tea, or passion fruit.

Tea plantation. The Azores are the only place in Europe to grow tea - and pineapples!
The Gorreana Tea Estate has been producing organic black, green, and orange pekoe teas since 1883. It’s the only tea plantation in Europe and definitely a place to go when touring São Miguel. When visiting their site near Ribeira Grande, you can taste first-hand the several types of tea but also take a peek into the mesmerizing tea-making process inside the factory.

We clearly went in the off season, mid January, so there were few guests, which we didn’t mind at all. Free Breakfast buffet was excellent as was the hotel’s service the entire time.
