Panama

Tea Tour in Boquete

Half-day tours are offered to explore a distinctive tea plantation in Boquete, Panama, where visitors can sample its unique tea products.

The history of tea dates back to ancient China, where the emperor developed a fondness for infusing plants in hot water. Tea gradually spread to neighboring regions and reached Europe, becoming a favorite pastime of aristocrats who enjoyed sipping it promptly at 5 o’clock while engaging in gossip. In the New World, tea was present at the inception of the US but often discarded in the Atlantic Ocean. Today, it’s a commonplace beverage woven into various aspects of our lives. Many romantic evenings start with champagne and end with herbal tea and a Netflix movie. Now, Panama offers a unique tea tour for our utmost pleasure.
