Monte Verità’s tea plantation

​

On Monte Verità above Ascona – the hill where revolutionaries, artists and philosophers once experimented with new ways of life – lies a unique tea garden. This botanical gem owes its existence both to the special microclimate and to the expertise of the tea specialists at Casa del Tè, who know exactly how to care for tea plants and process them into the six classic tea varieties: green, black, white, yellow, oolong and pu-erh tea.

In the heart of the garden, the Casa del Tè invites you to immerse yourself in the fascinating world of tea. Here, visitors can learn about tea culture, admire artistic ceramics and enjoy a cup of tea on the terrace, prepared – as you wish – in the European or Asian style. You can also sign up for a Japanese tea ceremony or a guided tour of the garden, including a tasting, to learn more about the art of tea.

Expert advice awaits you in the shop too – whether on fine artistic ceramics or exquisite tea rarities.

We look forward to your visit.

Opening hours:
April to October: daily 10 am–6 pm
November to March: Friday to Sunday 11 am–5 pm
(Please check the current opening hours on the website.)
