Oooh, I am seriously jealous. All those lovely new teas! I'm reminded of how knitters (myself included!) like to have a "stash" of yarn to always have a choice of projects / yarn to work with.
On China Greens -- play with temperature and steep a bit. I find somewhere around 180F works well, and not more than a couple of minutes of steep. If that's too bland, chances are it needs more leaves in the pot. But some China Greens need a bit more temp, and some a bit less or they're "grassy", which I don't like. (Japan Greens have the same problem - if you let the water get too hot, they go all grassy and bitter.)
Starting out the day with Anniversary Breakfast Blend.
