I drink PG Tips Original.
Earl Grey, hot, straight from the replicator.
With a replicated cup or do you just stick your head into the thing and have it created directly in your mouth? 🤔
Latter, hottest option, full load.
Brand? The fuck is that?! I pick my tea from the wild and sun dry it at home as any proper tea lover would.
Bunch of fukin posers talking about brands n shit…
😂
Yorkshire Tea
And their bedtime brew (with vanilla and nutmeg) is the best decaf I have found too!
The only one. Barry’s is a good blend to be fair, but hard to get outside of Norn iron.
I’ve found Bewley’s to be quite good with hard water too.
The right choice.
Yorkshire tea gold. As demanded by the Spiffing Brit.
I just drink normal Yorkshire tea, I’m not made of money.
They’re pretty much the same price here in the UK, BUT you can buy HUGE bags of a regular variant and that makes it a lot cheaper. And 1040 tea bags last more than a week, so less shopping!
Arizona.
A tea shop in Seattle called miro. I get their English breakfast delivered in bulk across the country it’s so good.
Hmmm, I live only a couple of miles from them. Guess I’ll have to check them out. I’ve been looking for a good tea shop.
I hit up all the tea places I could walk to last time I was in Seattle but unfortunately Ballard was a bit too far from where I was, I’ll have to keep them in mind!
I mostly drink yanchas/Wuyi rock oolongs. Get them from various sources, no specific brand. Also occasionally reputable sheng pu-erh if I can afford some, non-pu fermented teas, jin jun mei, genmaicha, or anything Nepalese or Malawi whole-ish leaf, in small quantities (max 50g).
Mmmmm oolong
Grew up with loose leaf so I don’t like most supermarket brands. Palais des thés is not bad tho.
Most tea I buy from Yunnansourcing.com and thes-du-japon.com
hell yeah! I’ve bought most of my pu stash from YS.
We mostly order loose leaf from Adagio. Though I might try Yunnan Sourcing soon. No shop near us sells loose leaf in any appreciable variety or quantity.
Adagio has solid teas.
Yorkshire if I’m lazy, Golden Monkey from Wenyang Tea Garden if I’m not.
IMO Yorkshire does well with hard water, and takes milk well.
Tips is good. I drink all kinds depending on mood. If you like cinnamon you need to try Harney and Sons Hot Cinnamon Spice.. I am addicted.
I also like to make sun tea in the summer, but I’m searching for the perfect tea for that. Local grocery has the usual Lousianne and Lipton.
Local loose-leaf. Although I do enjoy Ahmad Tea loose leaf. It’s very high quality for the price.
Seconding Ahmad Tea, I’m impressed by how cost effective they are.
Local? Are you in South East Asia?
Ahmad earl grey. We buy the loose tea, about ten 500g boxes per year. Also use it for kombucha.
We like the big UK brands like Yorkshire (the British know tea), but of the main US brands, usually grab Bigelo. But any tea drinker has a cabinet full of all kinds of tea.
This gunpowder green tea is good for beginners or the lazy because it’s mild and exceptionally tolerant of steeping too long, or in too hot water. Never bitter.
If you already like green teas, try some Taiwanese 10% (nearly green) oolong, more complex than plain green. 0% oxidised is green, 100% is black, oolong is everything in between.
