  2. English Breakfast and Assam are my favourites, I don't understand how anybody can like all these fruity teas
     
  3. Chai, Sleepytime Extra, jasmine, or this shit I make with cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and a pinch of red pepper. Not quite thirst-quenching, but tasty. :p
     
  4. I drink tea pretty much everyday, never coffee. Subdeeedubbed this thread as soon as I saw it!

  6. I love all kinds. Earl Grey, Green, White, and Camomile are my favorites. Something special about loose tea.

  9. Great topic..
    I love loose leaf tea, I never drink tea bags, as to me it has nothing in common with loose leaf tea..

    I started with black teas (Assam, Earl grey, Ceylon and Keemun (highly recommend Keemun).

    Then moved to Puerhs.. I have two vintage one's at the moment, from 2009 and 2005.. Another great Puerh was Lemon Puerh I got in the local tea shop.. lemon grass and lemon peel- the combination is unreal :)

    Then I moved to green: Bi Lo Chun, Gunpowder, and Jasmine Pearls are my favorites..

    Recently I moved to Oolongs.. And I really dig them.
    I absolutely love seeing the leaves unfold so much, it just gives me this natural feeling.. When you see full leaves of tea unfolding in your cup.. That's why I never drink tea bags.. :)

    My favorites: china-kwai-flower,
    China Lu Da Hong Pao :)

    Next to try is Matcha tea... ;)

    English tea with decarbed stems & leaves etc


    We call him Chief Kief now
     
  11. I've never liked tea. Little packets of potting soil in hot water. I like me a watermelon or fruit punch Arizona though..
     
  12. Arizona fruit punch is delicious but its sooo sugary and artificial
     
  13. Good choices.
    ;-)

    Drinking Puerh

    Here's my clay pot when I first got it, picture on top and here's it after 18 weeks of use picture on bottom.

    The clay absorbs the tea's oil and imparts flavor to the brew. I find it to be very enjoyable to "raise" a teapot like this.

    Generally "one" type of tea is used in this type of unglazed pot I chose an aged tea known as Sheng Puer.
    It most closely resembles green tea but is very different in its own respect.

    Anyway hope you all are staying tea drunk!!
