THE TEA TRAIL

Domaine des Aubineaux is the name of the family estate built in 1872 that has been transformed into a museum. It is the starting point of the Tea Trail. The guided tour will reveal sumptuous items of furniture dating back from the era of the East India Company. Take a stroll through the Garden of Camphor Trees with its exotic plants and trees endemic to the island and return to the cosiness of the Tea Rooms, that have been set up in the former Billiards Room, for the ritual of morning tea. From there, you are taken to Bois Cheri (which literally translates to ‘Beloved Woods’), for a guided tour of the factory and of the Tea Museum that ends with a delicious tasting session at the Chalet.
