Metropolitan Taste

Because of my love for Earl Grey tea, I wasn't sure if the inclusion of plum and clove would be a combination that I would like. Fortunately, I was pleasantly surprised! Metropolitan tastes far better than its aroma suggests. I'll add it to my list of favorites.

Delicious New Tea

I am a sold out Earl Grey tea drinker, and was happy to give this tea a try. With its rich flavor and plum overtone, it made for a great morning or afternoon tea. I am well pleased and will purchase again.
