I was on the matcha bandwagon for a bit but the powdery texture lost its novelty and now I'm a regular green tea man again

I always got on my grandfather's house really late, so I would just greet them and go to sleep. He always woke up early in the next day to bake some bread and make burnt mate tea, both were divine.

its called jamaica bro

English breakfast (tetleys, Yorkshire and glengettie)
White needle tea
Jasmine tea they serve at Chinese restaurants

I've tried a lot of teas but these are the only ones I actually enjoy a lot.

I find that a lot of them taste like pot pourie in water

How do you guys prep your tea? I have an electric kettle. I used to use tea balls and stuff like that. But with better quality teas that have bigger leaves and fewer stems, the tea sinks to the bottom, so they aren't necessary.

Orange Pekoe but Earl Grey is a close second

>>12464632
Earl Grey is my absolute favorite. I like English Breakfast and Irish Breakfast. My grocery store only has basic stuff. Anyone have recommendations that I might find on Amazon or somewhere online?

>>12464693
>>12464733

Every time I have ever had tea it's tasted like boiled water. I tried some fancy loose leaf kind, and it just tasted like acrid water.
I don't see what people find in it.

This is a common complaint and I've only ever heard it from Americans which makes me think it's something to do with your diet.

>>12466375
stop drinking lipton

>>12467217
Do you mean orange pekoe? That's a grade of tea, not a type of tea.

>>12464632
With мәтpүшкә, honey an milk.

It amazes me that Lipton has managed to convince so many people that orange pekoe is some kind of type or blend of tea.

earl grey is for fags. it was literally invented to cover up the taste of low-quality leaves.

my faves are golden assam, dong ding, and a high quality matcha.

>has clearly never had loose leaf tea ever in his life
not wanting to drink the literal waste product of the tea industry, that has no nuanced flavor, is not snobby. tea bags are why people think tea doesn't taste like anything. americans are ignorant.

>>12464632
My most favorite is a hearty Assam, but I also drink a lot of Gunpowder Green. Those are my two favorites. But, I also drink a lot of other teas, as well.

Maybe the loose leaf kind you had was to subtle for your palate. Have a flavorful black tea like earl grey and report back.

>>12467743
Yes

Pu'er.

>>12464632
jasmine green

>>12464632
I don't have a favorite, but they all have to be plain, and hot. No sugar, no milk, and not iced.

English Breakfast or Unsweetened Iced.

Reminder that poo-air tea is only for violent butch lesbians who beat the shit out of their partners. According to the CDC, lesbians have the highest rates of domestic abuse (60%) out of any population. It is suspected that the popularity of poo-air in the lesbian community may have something to do with their violent tendencies.

High quality matcha ordered online brewed nice and authentic, drank out of a tiny traditional bowl, HEB organics English breakfast + half and half or HEB brand sweet cream creamer, Thai tea iced with half and half and a straw, throat coat for sore throat, gunpowder green, Darjeeling

Ginger and turmeric tea with lemon. Hot or iced is good for me.

You seem to be the racist, as is very common with your types. I simply don't give a shit about your fucking nations and don't want to visit them.
If you want to call me racist for disagreeing with you then you must have been shillary supporters since that's the best that they can do.
Are you still seething in your closets because Trump beat your annointed one?

>>12464694
lemon verbena?

>>12467220
stop sucking dicks, faggot

Depends on what i'm feeling for i don't really have a favorite. Black lemon tea, green citrus, that weeb green popcorn rice tea, souchong tar tea, chai, chai masala to name a few. Also i tried some rooibos "hot chocolate" fancy store house blend with cinnamon, cacao bean bits and other shit in it that was p good but technically it's not really "tea". For iced tea peach is the best tho.

This or the Earl Grey by the same brand. I'm interested in their cardamom tea, I haven't tried it yet.

>>12464632

Earl grey with lavender is amazing. But I am a sucker for the old peppermint.

>>12473369
I ordered their loose leaf earl grey yesterday. I hope it's good.

I'm a person of black color. We don't drink tea.

I like sweet tea made from black pekoe teabags with just a single bag of Earl Grey tea, added in for that Bergamot kick, for aroma and flavor. Fucking refreshing.

>>12464632
Lemon ginger or pepper/spearmint.
Any herbal tea is nice, really.

Iced Earl Gray is based.

>>12464632
green (masala) chai. There's something about the fresh grassiness playing off of the cardamon and anise. I usually find myself lost in useful thought while drinking it.

>>12467258
I hate being able to make sense of cyrillic, and not being able to speak a lick of Russian. What is metrushke? A type of flower?

>>12473575
What the hell have I been drinking every tuesday with Tyrone fucking Lannister then?

Seriously... I drink tea at lunch on Tuesdays with a psychotic black midget. It's the most relaxing 30-45 minutes of pure nonsense I've ever experienced.
