One of my favorites, and a morning standard. This tea has a medium robustness to it. Steeped a little longer than 5 minutes and it might just pass for a semi-strong morning tea. It’s a beautiful blend of black teas that taste delightfully classy and refined. Can hold up to medium types of sweet and savory dishes without getting lost in the strong flavors of the food. Can turn bitter if steeped to long, timing is crucial. Although not needed, this tea gets an aesthetic boost when nurtured in a beautiful cup.

I might have to try this! Sounds great.
I’ve purchased this tea a few times at 8oz each. You can get a fabulous deal at www.jollygoodtea.com It’s where I buy all of my metropolitan teas. I’ve been buying from her for a few years now.
Are all the metro teas in bags? Just curious.
Oh no! :) Their primary line is all loose leaf teas, however they have a smaller line that is bagged. But everything I buy from them is loose leaf. They’re a wholesale company, so you’ll need to go through a retailer to get their teas. That’s why I go through www.jollygoodtea.com She has great deals if you find a tea that you like and you want to buy it in bulk.
Thanks for the recommendation for jolly good teas- got some great looking teas-and FAST-was here in 2 days!! She is so nice too!
Awesome! Glad you had a nice ordering experience with her. She’s really on the ball every time I’ve ordered and is great with customer service. Can’t wait to read your tea tasting notes with what you’ve ordered. :)
