I have not found
my shop yet
Tea Smith in London is the best but doesn't have online shop, so it doesn't count. I guess that The Chinese Tea Company (again in London) is the second but they are very expensive. I can afford only 1/3 of the available teas.

My friends went to Edinburgh for a few days. They were forced to take a cover from a torrential rain in a pub. As it happened the pub was specialising in whisky. A Japanese tourist asked the barmen:
