Tea: which online store?

Good morning everyone :) in recent years have become tea-dependent. I like tea, herbal teas, infusions and I drink them throughout the year but...which one should I buy?I'm not asking for aid on choosing the right taste but I would like your opinion on the "brand." Because given the huge amount of tea that I buy, I buy it online and I've always taken Twinings but now there are Teavana and Adagio that inspire me but I'm afraid to be disappointed. Where do you buy tea?

    I prefer tea flavored tea. You can purchase the lipton tea bags. I made a thread about a few different methods of making good tea if you'd like:

    Agree with Taunto@chai. Personally, I'd enjoyed "Pulled tea" (aka chai) every which way, from whence I'd first dared my first hot cuppa, with my samosas and tamarind chutney.

    My lazy go-to for variety with my teas, is as you've done - online purchases (mainly) for convenience sake for "just the right tea" as the perfect balance, to ease me into the next phase seamlessly, when the need arises.

    Having equally enjoyed Bushells, Lyons, Adagio, Sirocco, Twinings, Tetley's, Earl Grey's (TWG/East India Company/Teavana), Lipton and Barry's tea etc over the years, I'm delighted you're willing to sample the untried brands and the types of teas you're certain you'll enjoy, irrespective of marketing driven brandising; Private label vs Brand sharing + Market trend(s).

    I have two local tea vendors, well, one is an hour away in Fort Collins, but worth the drive. They have an online store: http://www.happyluckys.com/

    I love that their profits go to support schools in Cambodia.

    My favorites are the Madame Grey and the Cinnamon Spice.
