Tea recommendations?

Mar 17, 2009 12:26

I just ran out of tea at work, and I'm going to want to pick up some new teas, probably from my lovely neighborhood tea bar, Remedy Teas. I'm just finished with Dragonwell (green) and French Breakfast (black), and I'm looking for recommendations ( Read more... )

tea, request

Right now I'm loving my oolong sampler from Adagio Teas. Oolong #40 is worth every penny, and that's a lot of pennies at that price. Oolong #18 is excellent too. So's Jasmine #12. I didn't like the Pouchong so much.

I've recently become an absolute convert to the sorts of teas that can just be thrown in a cup, because they'll unfurl into nice big leaves and sink. Mmmm.

I found one of these at a local tea store. It's cheap and amazingly useful. :)

Yeah, I just like fancy enough tea now that it's fine to leave it in the cup and even reuse the teas a few times. Adagio is definitely scratching my itch in that respect.

I know this isn't what you're asking about exactly, but Honest Tea peach white tea is so delicious. And it's not full of sugar or caffeine.

My favorite by far lately is the coconut pouchong.

I'm working my way through a half pound of Madagascar Vanilla black tea from Teacup on Queen Anne.

I got the two I just finished from there, but I'm up on Queen Anne a lot less these days. :/

I know it's nothing special... but, for me, there is nothing better than a cup (or 2 or 3) of peppermint tea. I can never get enough - it's my favorite by far! Yum!
