I tried making honeybush tea twice and ended up throwing it out. I just did not like it. I can't see blending it with too many other teas because the steep time is so long.
Looking at my reduced tea shelf, I am realizing that I have a strong preference for black and oolong teas. I have three greens that I enjoy, two oolongs, on Darjeeling, one Pu-Erh, one pure black (Keemun), three flavored black teas. I have two blended teas from Teavana but those might just fall off of my list.
I have four other Pu-Erh's, two I see finishing one loose leaf Shu and one Shu Tuo Cha from Rishi, and two that I might have occassionally but not likely, the Ginger and Vanilla Mint.
I can see trying new teas when they look interesting to me but I think I might have figured out what I really like and found my top 20 teas.
And I am scared that I can honestly talk about a top 20 teas.
