About the tour
On Adjara’s tea plantations you’ll join a master class in picking tea leaves, where you can take part yourself and see how the flavor of real tea is shaped from the very start.
Over the day you’ll discover the country’s tea story, from Soviet factories to modern production. We learn how the technology has changed and how tea is made today, and it all ends with a tasting of four kinds of tea that shows what real tea should taste like.
