Me? For me? My favorite tea? Well if you asked me what my favorite tea was, I’d say that, well for me, it’s Darjeeling and good old black tea.

I wish I could tell you. It's in a mason jar my grandmother gave me eight years ago. It's one of the best teas I've ever brewed. It has this sweet raisin-like aroma and it goes well with either a bit of cream or just black. It has the subtlest taste of fruit, and it makes me wonder if all those coffee and wine snobs were really onto something and I've been in denial all these years.

There's a shop near me that sells tea by the pound. They buy lots of imported Indian and Chinese teas. I can't remember any of their names but they're pretty goddamn good.

That's about it. Longjing is also ok, along with most light oxidized oolongs that aren't smoked or roasted over wood.

anyone here had skullcap tea? how is it? i have bad insomnia since i quit drinking every day and i want to try it but i'd have to order it online.

my favorite tea is probably earl grey with lemon, or spearmint. iced black tea with cider vinegar and honey is really good in summer. i remember liking white teas, but i haven't had one in a long time

Pic related steeped for probably longer than necessary is my favorite. Four red fruits is pretty nice too. They're good for being as cheap as they are. In terms of other teas that aren't black, Pukka's night time one for sleep. Or just some fresh mint leaves with a slice of lemon and honey.

I really like this assam tgfop from Porto Rico Importing Co in NYC. It's really bold but without any nasty bite, it drinks very smoothly somehow. It also gets a really gorgeous auburn color if you steep it long enough (doesn't get tanniny for me even if I oversteep a bit).
I also really like the puerh I got there, though that's kind of a different experience.
