any tea fans?

[desmoface]

Hey you crazy kids, you. I'm not much of a coffee drinker but I loves me bloody tea. Of course, I don't know much about the sport of tea drinking..I usually just drink the generic Lipton.

So, I ordered a catalog from this place http://www.uptontea.com/shopcart/home.asp?UTid=555-11-2112002&?afterCart=/shopcart/home.asp&referral=http%3A%2F%2Fsearch%2Eyahoo%2Ecom%2Fsearch%3Fp%3Dupton%2Btea%26fr%3Dush1%2Dmail

Too many options, though..Are there any knowledgeable tea connoissuer's out there that can recommend a good tea for me to try? Thanks in advance.

I love tea, never drink coffee, but don't like Brookbond and Tatley's.
Generally have adlay tea and Twinnings.

plain old tetley with milk no sugar.

I have a quite heavy coffee and tea consumtion, more than usually cause it's nearly summer and more schoolwork then ever, an 40 hour job a week would be vacation right now.

Hey gang, I have some Earl Gray that I like. I've tried twinnings and it is also good..sold right at my local grocery store. I'm thinking of trying something different from that ling I posted..maybe a sampler. Thanks for all the replies.

This is off-topic, but where in Ohio are you, desmoface?

I like early Gray (with milk) or China and Darjeeling for reading tea leaves.

 

[Ben Chill]

At last - an important topic.

Proper tea, no fancy stuff, milk and 1 sugar please.

Of course, it inspired my favourite band. Regarde:

The only tea for me is, predictably, Yorkshire Tea!

 

[The Cat's Mother]

I love a delicate Earl Grey or smoky Lapsang Souchong for summer breakfasts, but right now I'm slightly chilly so I'm going to have a big, hearty mug of Assam with a couple of gingernuts to nibble while I write something naughty.

Hey now!! I'm about 10-15 miles East of Cleveland, in a suburb called Mentor.

I'm listening to "Behind the Bars" by Elliott Smith - a real toe tapper..for my continued listening pleasure.

I've heard of Mentor! I'm in the opposite part of the state, in the Village of Oak Harbor, about 30 mins southeast of Toledo.

 

[desmoface]

Steve

P.S. I'm listening to William Shatner's version of "Rocket Man"..WOOHOO!!!

Green tea is wrong - it's like drinking liquid grass!
