This 250-hectare tea factory and museum is located about 12km north of Rivière des Anguilles amid an endless acreage of cane. Visitors can take an hour-long tour of the tea-processing facility, which ends with a stop at a small exhibition space annotating the island's tea history through machines and photos. The best part of the visit is undoubtedly the sampling session at the end. It's advisable to plan your trip during the morning as most of the action takes place before noon. After your tour, stick around for lunch – the in-house restaurant takes a formidable stab at gourmet cuisine and uses locally sourced ingredients. The commanding views over the riverine plains are also quite captivating.
