Vegetables and spices from the Labyrinthe En-Champs-Thé

Perched at an altitude of 1,100 metres in the heights of St Joseph, Grand Coude is linked to the world by its umbilical cord: "le Petit Serré", 60 metres wide between two rivers, the Rivière des Remparts and the Rivière Langevin, from which you can admire magnificent sites. This village is home to the Labyrinthe En-Champ-Thé. The labyrinth is built in a forest of tea bushes, old plantations from the 1960s, recognized at the time as one of the three best teas in the world.

In 2005, Johny and his wife relaunched the history of Grand Coude tea, a unique French production. The plantation also grows geraniums, which have been awarded the Esprit parc national label. The one we're talking about here isn't the one you'll find on your balcony, but the fragrant geranium, the one we use to collect the essential oils after distillation.

What's more, over the years, the farm has diversified to include, alongside the tea and geranium trees, a high-quality organic market garden, which also benefits from the Esprit Parc National label. If you visit the farm, you're sure to come away with a basket of organic fruit or vegetables!
