Re: OT: Tea thread

Yeah, I'm aware. That's the reason I said most. EDIT: and even quality bags from Adagio and the like are not big enough imho.

Re: OT: Tea thread

This was posted on here a few years ago, and I ended up spending a fair amount of coin at this website: http://www.adagio.com/

They have a great selection and their ingenuiTEA and UtiliTea products are great.

Also, someone posted these guys as a great source of really quality teas, but I haven't made an order from them yet.

I'm partial to black tea myself. I'm on the hunt for a really good one that I'm comfortable buying a larger bag of.

Re: OT: Tea thread

Green Yogi-brand anti-oxident on the drive to work, then some earl grey. I like lemon ginger, especially this dragon stuff you can only get online that mixes directly into the water, as an herbal. White for when I want something highfaluting, Good Earth regular on a chill day or when I'm backpacking, yerba mate if I need more of a caffeine rush. I have some others. I hardly ever sweeten it or put milk in. Loose leaf green is way better than the stuff in bags, but I usually can't be bothered.

Bought from commercial places, I like the stuff you get from Peet's way better than Starbucks, though I do like their chai tea.

The taste is not night and day from a good tea bag.


This is tea we're talking about. Hyperbole is required.

Black tea for me. Don't like most herbals and simply don't drink green very often...

Earl Grey, Prince of Wales, Buckingham Palace Garden Party.

Re: OT: Tea thread

I don't need you to tell me how fucking good my tea is, okay? I'm the one who buys it, I know how good it is. When Bonnie goes shopping, she buys shit. Me, I buy the gourmet expensive stuff because when I drink it, I want to taste it. But you know what's on my mind right now? It ain't the tea in my kitchen, it's the dead nagger in my garage.
