TheKesser drank Trafalgar Anniversary Tea by Metropolitan Tea Company

606 tasting notes

This wasn’t quite what I was expecting. The label says “full of flavour, deep coppery brightness and excellent maltiness with delicate hints of oakiness.” It says nothing about it having rose petals on the label. So, when I opened it and it smelt floral and had rose petals in it, I was honestly very disappointed. I was expecting it to smell woody.

Steeped it up though 4mins with probably too much leaf as it’s crazy strong.

I do get a slight bit of the floral, but mostly it’s more oaky. It’s not bad, but it’s a bit confusing for me. I don’t think I would get this one again. I only got about 50g, so I’m going to try and drink this one up, but I know I won’t be grabbing it very often.

I’m a 30-something-year-old writer. I finished my first novel last year, which I’m editing this year amongst the world’s craziness and hoping to some day get it published. I’ve also written several short stories that I’m looking to get published someday

I work as a paginator (I do page layout for our local weekly newspaper) and absolutely love it! I’m also an amateur photographer.
I’m the proud mommy of two sweet little boys.
I’m married to an absolute amazing man who “puts up” with my tea obsession.

I became obsessed with tea a few years after high school.I started with Orange Pekoe double double (milk not cream), and peppermint. Since that time, I’ve really opened up to other kinds of tea and I’ve well… I’ve kind of just went nuts since then.

I’m a loose leaf fan, but if there are no other options, I will drink bagged.

I would have to say my favourite kinds of tea are (in no particular order): black, puerh cakes, herbal and matcha.

Green teas still aren’t a favourite for me, but I’m working on it.

I still can’t get myself to like mate teas, as much as I try, I just don’t like their flavour.

I drink tea every single day. I absolutely love it. I can’t image my life without it.

I don’t log every time I drink a tea as I don’t want to spam everyone with tons of duplicate loggings, but I will log when I have a new tea, which happens on a regular basis and when I do a SIPDOWN! :D
