I love all things salty. When I ran across Genmaicha I was interested because there were some folks who said the toasted rice had a slightly salty flavor. It sounded weird but attactive to me so I tried it. I love me some Genmaicha precisly because it is a trace of saltiness.
If you like fruit look for some teas that have the type of fruit that you like. I would caution against cherry infused teas mainly because they all taste like cough syrup to me.
If you find you are an English Breakfast or Russian tea bagged drinker you will probably enjoy teas that are less flavored. If you enjoy most CS teas you will probably enjoy teas that are more flavored.

I bet I might like that, too. I love brown rice, and I like the barley tea they serve at the Korean restaurant I go to. The Korean market has a bunch of teas with things added in, but I can't read the labels. Sometimes the shelf will have an English description, though. If I can ever get out of here and go shopping, I think I'll see what they have along those lines. Live dangerously, right? I think I'll stay away from the one that has "semen cannabis" though. Saw that one last time I was there.
