Souvenir Tea Tins

Our Souvenir Tea Tins are a fun way to both drink tea yourself, as well as to give tea as a gift. They contain some very delightful flavors of teas, all in tea bags. The tins are also beautifully embossed. They are collectible themselves. We keep several of these teas around our home at all times. Once we have drank the tea, we use the beautiful tins to store other loose tea. They stack nicely and decorate our tea counter.

Some of these flavors are only available in these tins, so if you find a favorite, buy it while we have it in stock, since we can run out of some flavors during the year. Still curious? Read about each of the teas below.

Icewine Black Tea
Icewine Tea, is beautifully scented and flavored black tea, which is flavored with Ontario Icewine, in addition to other ingredients. Of course the is no wine left in the tea, but the flavor of the “nectar of the gods” still lingers, which is what makes this tea so special. The result is a light, fruity tea, with the grapey flavor of the Icewine. If you are not familiar with Icewine, you are in for a treat of a flavor.

Icewine is a sweet dessert wine made from varietal grapes, which are frozen with the first freeze of the Fall. By the time the grapes are hit by this first freeze, it is already late in the Autumn season, the grapes have shriveled, but that only concentrates the sugars and favors of the grape. The vintner only presses about 20 percent of the juice they would normally get from a grape. The flavors can be described as apple, pear, honey, melon and others, depending on the varietal.

When the icewine is blended with luxury black teas, the tea delivers a sweet fruity flavor you can’t find in any other tea. To enhance the natural fruity flavors, we recommend you add a bit of sweetener. It’s one of Rick’s all-time favorites.
Each Souvenir Tin contains 24 teabags.
Luxury Ingredients: Black tea, Raisin pieces, White tea, Natural flavors, Ontario Icewine.

Icewine Green Tea
Icewine Green Tea has light icewine notes with mild floral highlights one would expect when sipping an icewine wine. Our blender also says it brings you memories of Canada’s vineyards in December. We’ve been through Ontario vineyards, but not in December. The reference to December is due to how icewine is made at the vineyards. Our Green Icewine Tea has the same, grapey flavor you have in a glass of Icewine, just not in a glass.
Each Souvenir Tin contains 24 teabags.
Luxury Ingredients: Kenya green tea, Ice wine, Natural flavors.

Inukshuk Blueberry Icewine Black Tea
Our Inukshuk Blueberry Icewine Black Tea is a very unique flavored tea. Icewine is a very late-harvest white wine, which when harvested at the first freeze of the Fall, creates a very sweet, almost syrupy dessert wine. Our blender captures this sweet, grapey flavor and combines it with a light blueberry flavor to create this one-of-a-kind tea. Inukshuks, or properly Inuksuit, are built as a landmark, direction of a path, or as a commemoration. Kind of fitting for this tea, since this Inukshuk might lead you to a new favorite tea. One of Rick’s personal favorites, if you are a fan of Icewine, Blueberry tea, or both, it just become one of your favorites too.
Each tin contains 24 teabags.
Luxury Ingredients: Black tea, Natural flavors.

Maple Black Tea
Maple Black Tea is flavored with real maple syrup. It has a sweet tone of caramel notes. A unique flavor that can hook you even if you are not necessarily a maple syrup fan. The maple syrup used to flavor this tea is gathered in the Canadian wilds, where maple syrup gather and production is almost a religion and is as Canadian and hockey. So, why not try a tea blended with some of this Northern nectar. Our blender captured this incredible favor and added it to a luxury, high grown Ceylon tea for a sweet cuppa that’s second to none. Cheers!
Each tin contains 24 teabags.
Luxury Ingredients: Black tea, Natural flavors, Real maple syrup.

Maple Green Tea
Maple Green Tea has the same maple characteristics of our Maple Black Tea, except they blended it with a luxury green tea from Kenya. It has a full maple flavor you would expect in anything maple from Canada. As with the black version, Maple Green Tea is flavored with real maple syrup, which gives you maple, caramely notes. It’s unique, but if you’re a maple syrup fan as we are, the flavor won’t surprise you, but welcome you home. Maple is a comforting flavor, so why not try it and see if it’s true.
Each tin contains 24 teabags.
Luxury Ingredients: Kenya green tea, Maple syrup, Natural flavors.

Northern Lights Strawberry Maple Black Tea
Northern Lights Strawberry Maple Black Tea is probably one of the smoothest flavors available. This is the first flavored black tea Rick drank over 25 years ago, which opened up his tea world beyond plain black and Earl Grey teas. Our blender combines the light flavors of maple, which is so Canadian, with a light strawberry flavor. The result is a delightful tea which can be enjoyed throughout the day. Both the strawberry and maple flavors are balanced against each other so that neither is so dominant they take over the flavor profile.
Each tin contains 24 teabags.
Luxury Ingredients: Black tea, Natural flavors.

Wilderness Huckleberry Black Tea
Our Wilderness Huckleberry Black Tea has all the flavor of the huckleberry, which is a flavory wild berry. Find full berry fruitiness with mountain freshness in this tea. Indigenous to higher elevations thriving in an acid soil and a close relative of the blueberry, this fruit has a sweet robust, albeit tart, flavor when compared to its blueberry cousin and is generally not cultivated commercially. There is limited availability of huckleberries which probably accounts for part if its popularity. The huckleberries are a favorite food of bears and are thus adventurous to pick! There is a certain amount of wilderness factor associated with the huckleberry which make them quite scrumptious and a true delicacy.
Each Souvenir Tin contains 24 teabags.
Luxury Ingredients: Black tea, Natural flavors.

Our Souvenir Tea Tins are popular and are great to store tea in, once empty, but if you like your teas loose, we do carry the Maple Black Tea, Mountain Huckleberry Black Tea and Icewine Black Tea.
