Loose Tea

Options
What kinds of loose tea are you fellow tea lovers drinking? I just got some great tea tumblers with diffusers built in, and am hoping to find some good brands / blends.

I like oolong, green (especially green with macha), herbal, black... I like everything! Recommends and leads would be wonderful. :)

    I like to order from www.enjoyingtea.com. Their strawberry black tea is AMAZING! I also have their rose black and the chai. I have some raspberry black, but it's not as good. My other favorite is an orange spice tea that I get from a local whole foods store. That's what I'm drinking right now!

    Check out http://www.theteatable.com/ (You can even get free samples for ones you are uncertain about) I currently have angels dream (black, green, maple, blackberry) black currant (black tea) rooibos chai, and rooibos white chocolate toffee (a favorite!)

    I've tried tons of others (usually rooibos) and have yet to find one I don't lov.e Orange cream is good too... like those dreamcicles!

    I drink teavana's samurai chai mate (for the taste and huge caffeine boost) as well as jasmine dragon phoenix pearls

    http://www.teavana.com/the-teas/green-teas/p/jasmine-dragon-phoenix-pearls-green-tea

    Those are my two favorite. I used to buy it online from this other company, but teavana bought them out. I also like oolong tea. I used to drink monkey picked, but that's sooo expensive, so I switched to jasmine oolong.

    Another favorite is their rooibos tropica, which is one of their more affordable teas:

    If you know of any others, lmk. I love to try different kinds.

    I absolutely love their Morroccan Mint Green (USD $4.80/2 oz) and their Mate's are also delicious. They also have a Jasmine Green Tea Pearls that is so flowery and yummy :)

    I have a teavana vanilla chai that is delicious and my other favorite is a black currant tea that I bought at adagio teas which is a little tea shop by my house, but I believe you can order from them online. They have over 200 different flavors and the prices are very reasonable.

    I usually order from Culinaryteas.com their variety is amazing. I usually end up getting the flavored black teas Chocolate Raspberry Truffle being my favorite.

    You can get 1 oz. samples for around $2 and they usually have a 10 or 20% off coupon

    Thank you so much for turning me on to the strawberry black tea. I had to borrow my mom's tea ball thingie. I got a sample of it and I got a 20% off coupon! It has taken me a long long time to find this thread again to thank you!!!

    I've been drinking Gun Powder Grean Tea for a few years now. Started it (ofcourse I would almost say) because I thought it may help boosting my metabolism. Kind of have to get used to the taste, it's a bit smokey, but since I started drinking this I hardly drink coffee anymore. I would surely recommend it!
