The most original place in Funchal for a free and complete tasting of wines, rums and liqueurs. In this former Anglican church, classified as a historical store, Mr. Sousa, the octogenarian manager, creates a surprise by offering to taste the precious nectars in the basement. This partially exhibited collection (50,000 pieces), started in 1967, features Madeira wines from 1840 to today, young and old rums, liqueurs, port wines and other spirits at very competitive prices... Unique in its kind, not to be missed.

Extraordinaire . Les souvenirs y sont meilleur marché qu'ailleurs, par exemple les cartes postales y sont à 0,20€, et la cave est une véritable caverne d'Ali Baba (des milliers de bouteilles !) : Madères plus que centenaires, liqueurs choisies; rhums dont certains très vieux ; j'en ai goûté (et acheté) un de 1972 .
A découvrir absolument !

A souvenir shop that is distinguished by a wide choice and the prices slightly lower than in the tourist places. The shop itself has beautiful volumes and charm.
Plus excenté des sentiers touristiques cet endroit est une véritable caverne de trésors, et vaut vraiment le détour :)
