The only tea grown in America!


The Charleston Tea Plantation is the home of American Classic Tea, tea grown in America. It is located on picturesque Wadmalaw Island in the heart of South Carolina's Lowcountry. Its grounds include 127 acres of Camellia Sinensis tea plants and a working Tea Factory and a charming Plantation Gift Shoppe.

Bloomsbury proudly serves iced and hot tea from this plantation at the afternoon social and at breakfast. These teas are also available in the Bloomsbury gift case. Although there is no tea harvested at Bloomsbury, you can see a very old Camellia Sinensis tea plant.

The plantation is 2+ hours from Bloomsbury, it is a great place to visit. Both the factory and the plantation tour are very interesting. Did you know that caffeine-free tea contains no tea?
