The variety of tea thrown overboard in the Boston Tea Party was called Bohea, and was a kind of Chinese black tea. It is most similar to Lapsang souchong, a black tea with a smoky aroma. The tea was sold by the British East India Company.
Bohea tea is not widely available in the U.S., but there are a few sources that sell it by mail-order.
