I have not had anything from Adagio but they have a good rep.
If you are in Illinois and can get to Chicago, there is an actual Tea Gschwendner store. It is one of the few ones in the US right now. I have visited there once. My husband spent an hour wondering how I could spend so much time and money in a tea shop.
I would also guess that there is a Teavana store near you. Teavana runs a nice shop and the folks there are very helpful but a bit pushy.
If you are interested in going to Teavana PM me and I will happily fill you in on their regular sales pitches, why they are wrong, and the best way to shop there. They sell some great teas but the sale people are pretty forceful.
