    If you’re in a place they ship to, check out these guys. Oolong specialist tea shop in Seattle that has some of the best quality tea I’ve ever had. It’s a really small operation, too, with people who really love what they do: https://floatingleaves.com/

    I drink all kinds of different tea. At the moment I often drink Keiko Matcha and lots of really beautiful green tea my friend sent me from Taiwan. I love to coldbrew green tea in summer. Greek mountain tea my parents bring me from crete. I also buy fresh mint to make tea from some of the fresh leaves and to dry the rest.

    Besides that my favorite brand is The English Teashop in all forms it comes in and Cupper/Clipper.

      Hmmm, I live only a couple of miles from them. Guess I’ll have to check them out. I’ve been looking for a good tea shop.

    I mostly drink yanchas/Wuyi rock oolongs. Get them from various sources, no specific brand. Also occasionally reputable sheng pu-erh if I can afford some, non-pu fermented teas, jin jun mei, genmaicha, or anything Nepalese or Malawi whole-ish leaf, in small quantities (max 50g).

    Twinnings is my usual. Pukka, mostly for herbies, and various supermarket ownbrands (not each of them’s cheapest ownbrand mind you). Yorkshire is decent, PG tips OK but I never buy the latter myself.

    Guizhou Mao Jian (毛尖) of various brands is decent too, if you can find it. More commonly I love an English Breakfast, Earl and Lady Grey, Rooibos, and various herbal concoctions.

    Edit: nicest brand of tea I had was TWG, and they were amazing. Too expensive for me to ever buy for myself, though.

    Lyon’s, the superior Irish tea.

    I’m also a fan of Yunnan teas. Especially pu ehr (shou, sheng, compressed, loose, it’s all good) and Yunnan Noir.

      Barry’s, speaking as a non-Irish person who loves the idea of two competing tea brands and hasn’t even tried Lyon’s.

      Agreed on Yunnan on all but shu, and sheng at the temperamental ~5-10 age range.

    I usually look for well reviewed, reasonably priced loose Darjeeling of whatever brand I can find when I want black tea. But mostly I mix teas and flower petals of various types depending on my mood. Lavender, chamomile, calendula, rose, etc.

    I’ve been drinking a ton of Tazo glazed lemon loaf tea. Herbal. Splash of oatmilk and rose syrup. Ugh so good. Bigelo Oolong is good too.
