Organic Assam P.F. Tea from Metropolitan Tea Company
Style: Assam – Region: Assam, India77 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Jun. 15th, 2017
Served in Rock City cafe in Rockland, Maine.
This was a very dark Assam with a fairly smoky character. Aroma is strong, malty and fruity, but it is the smoky notes that make this tea stand out. The aroma is interesting and complex, a little like drinking a fine wine.
Flavor is slightly harsh, bitter and with a lo...
Maple Tea from Metropolitan Tea Company
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon77 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Oct. 27th, 2016
I first tried some of this tea back in 2006 after seeing it in some tourist shops in Victoria, BC. [This review is posted ten years later after getting some more, also in Victoria.] The stuff is expensive; after all, retail markups are pretty steep for anything marketed as characteristically Canadian in such places. ...

Ginger Peach tea from Metropolitan Tea Company
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon73 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5

If you like tea with a taste of fruit this is your cup. The taste of ginger is sweeten by the peach flavor, taking away the harsh taste of ginger without over powering the brew. As for the aftertaste it doesn't linger long, but it leaves a warm feeling on the taste buds. Ginger is great for settling the stomach and thi...

Served at Notting Hill coffee shop in Lewes, DE.
An outstanding English Breakfast blend: robust and strong, with a rich and complex aroma. The aroma is slightly malty, and has noticeable wintergreen notes.
Flavor is very bold and rich; flavor is both bitter and savory, and astringency is fairly strong; be carefu...
Keemun Panda #1 Tea from Metropolitan Tea Company
Style: Keemun – Region: Anhui, China80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Jul. 18th, 2015
Served at Notting Hill coffee shop in Lewes, DE.
Very aromatic loose leaf, slightly smoky, typical for a Keemun of good quality.
Brews a rich, mellow cup with a rounded character and strong warming quality. Probably not the best tea for a hot summer day like today, but I was in the mood for it and it was excellen...
Canadian Icewine Tea from Metropolitan Tea Company
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend80 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Nov. 3rd, 2014
This is an excellent twist on your standard black tea--light with a faint sweetness which adds a delicacy not typically seen in your average morning brew. It is a pleasure to drink cold-brewed or hot, although those who consider the perfume of a tea to be among the most important parts of the experience may come away d...
