We have a Teavana now so I can actually see what they have. It's nifty stuff. First store in Canada and it's fifteen minutes from my house. How cool is that?

Pricy stuff though. I might me sticking with my Blue Teapot and miscallenous local stores.

Tea is great =w=
my favorites are Orange pekoe and pure green.:D

Quiet Man Cometh 12-26-2011 09:02 PM

It surprises how many people don't seem to know what Orange Pekoe is. Apparently it was assumed around town that we had some sort of Orange Spice tea, which was merely Red Rose tea since we had nothing of the sort. No one seemed to complain about the tea not tasting like orange.

I'm a black tea fanatic myself, but I alternate with green and white to give myself a break (doctors are after me for how stong I have my tea and how often). I find I like cornflower petals in my tea, two of my favourite blends have them included. I rarely have plain green. I prefer Genmaicha, Japanese green with toasted rice.

Happy Near Year all! Pass on the champagne here and raise a cup of your favourite tea! Yay!

I wish that we had blackberry tea.

I had some at Chili's and loved it, but no one sells it D:

Tea is good for your soul..*sips green tea*

Yokuutsu 01-05-2012 11:28 PM

I'm not big on plain green tea. Not since I had some that didn't even taste of green tea.

Spirit of the Party 01-06-2012 12:20 AM

Eh? That must give tea a bad name, then. What was it called?

Yokuutsu 01-06-2012 12:29 AM

It was at this Japanese restuarant. Normally it's good, but that time it was bad enough that I just get normal sweet tea now .-.

Spirit of the Party 01-06-2012 12:39 AM

Sweet tea is pretty good. Though my favorite is this red tea. I think it was called "Rooibos"

Yokuutsu 01-06-2012 01:45 AM

I'm from the south so...ICE SWEET TEA FOR THE WIN!

Quiet Man Cometh 01-06-2012 01:48 AM

Roiboos is African red bush tea, I think, or African honey bush, not sure which. I'm not all that fond of it but several people I know who generally aren't fond of tea tend to like it. It seems to hold flavours well.

I like vanilla bean tea, but only onw brand I know makes it and it's more money then I want to spend on it. Tetly used to have a Vanilla Earl greay but I haven't seen it in a while, and I tend to avoid Tetly now. I had their Green tea and it doesn't taste or smell much like Green tea.

I don't usually have it plain but I find it helps my stomach if I'm feeling a little under the weather. It's also nice for a hot drink if I feel like something more than hot water but not as strong as black tea.

Yokuutsu 01-06-2012 01:51 AM

I hate anything too bitter...which is probably why that one place's green tea is either really good or really bad.

I like the already made lipton green tea...but it never tastes right if you use their powder for some reason .-.

Quiet Man Cometh 01-06-2012 01:56 AM

Powder? Sort of like matcha? Or are we talking like an iced tea or something?

Spirit of the Party 01-06-2012 01:58 AM

The lipton green tea is pretty bad, as far as green tea goes, in my opinion. It's too sweet and it has something in it which contracts my throat. :P

Quiet Man Cometh 01-06-2012 02:04 AM

It smells wrong to me and looks like someone messed up and put in trash black tea. Ick!
