Description

From the various cultures introduced in the Azores the highlight goes to tea. The plantations of Gorreana and Porto Formoso, appearing in the horizon as a sea of green leaves, are unique in the Europe. During the visits to the museum-factories, one learns the history and evolution of the machinery, before the well deserved cup of Azorean tea.
