    My favorite teas are earl grey and oolong. I was lookin to find some extra nice stuff for that rare occasion where the cheapo bags aren't going to cut it.

    So, any suggestion? Preferably an amazon source.

    I drink tea every morning. The best stuff that i have ever had is from Charleston Tea Plantation. I think it's the only commercial tea plantation in US.
    It's awesome stuff, but a little pricey.

    Bags are for chumps. I buy tea by the pound at a local coffee place. I use a tea ball. Thousand times better than stale tea in a bag.

    I use a tea press, but I used a ball for many years. Theoretically filter papers grab some of the essential oils, but I can't say they I'd be able to tell the difference. The fill your own bag deals are good.

    I did some looking on Amazon and it seems tea is one of those things on Amazon that is overpriced and lacking in selection.

    It's a weird one, I like it a lot, but it's not everyone's cup of tea. Twinings makes one that's okay you might be able to find at a grocery store (redish brown box the last time I saw some). Or get some of this and really expense it:

    I didn't think I was but I think that was just when I was trying grocery store brands. They have to be good quality, flavored with natural flavors.

    I agree but I drink a lot of their Earl Grey because it's the only Earl Grey that I can get loose leaf at the grocery store. I should order some that is better.

    It's a black tea that undergoes a different fermentation process than the 'normal' black tea. It's more or less black tea without the astringency. I find the depth of flavors to be more complex as well.

    So far i've had:
    Scottish breakfast blend-very nice.
    Earl grey-decent, but i've had better
    Earl grey vanilla cream-not my thing. Big vanilla aroma but kinda wimpy on flavor
    Some dragon pearls thing-this one was really good. Its like a very fancy oolong.

    I want something with licorice. Evidently that's a flavor I like in tea.

    Valid question, definitely not Twizzlers. I assume licorice root is used in tea.

    Its used to sweeten up some tea blends. Couldn't name anything off the top of my head, though.

    I like tea with licorice. I haven't found one with enough minty licorice yet. It's probably one of those flavors that isnt enough until its too much.

    Licorice, anise, fennel, and a bunch of other seeds and roots have the same flavor

    Minty licorice. That's the ticket.

    Went with a vendor called harney & sons. A little pricey, bit all pf the six types i got are really good.

    The Paris blend is one of the tastiest cups of tea i've ever had.

    I need to get some good tea. I haven’t had a cup in a long time.

    All three of the sites i've tried have sample sizes you can get. Usually like 5 or 6 cups, loose tea. Haven't been lookin at bags.
