Do you know any of these:

Chinese Black Tea:
The Dragon's Eye Oolong tea (confusing: oolong and black at the same time, could not they make up their mind before posting it? )
Keemun Downy Bud Tea Loose Leaf
Emperors Yunnan Tea
Tong Mu Bohea
Emperors Yunnan Tea is one that I've had before and enjoyed. I have a feeling that the Keemun on that list will be tasty too, but I've never tasted theirs.

Quote:
House Blends:
Royal Breakfast Loose Leaf
This one is my #1 breakfast choice right now! I alternate between it and the unbranded Keemun I bought. The nice thing about drinking blends from recognized tea importers is that the flavor is always consistent from year to year. Much more so than with single leaf teas, which vary with the crop.

Quote:
Assam:
The First Estate Assam Loose Leaf
And this is my usual everyday Assam.

I think the East India Company can really put together some very fine tea! I would be afraid to walk into the East India Company shop... I would love to attend a tea tasting even there... have one of each and every. Can you imagine?!?

@ latinandgreek: did you try it?

or am I hesitating? avoiding the tea that astra said he didn't like?
Not yet, my local store didn't have it!

It's certainly one of the reasons! She doesn't run when we meet sharks when diving. She's happy on the back of my bike racing over Passo San Bernadino. And laughs when we get completely lost in the middle of some jungle.

Who can ask for more?

Don't hesitate! Try it. The worse that can happen is that you don't like it. And best would be that you love it! We all have different likes and dislikes. One man's meat is another man's fish! Or something like that...

Chinese Blossom tea. My regular mug at work got lost over the weekend, and now I'm stuck with a really tiny cup So lots of walking back and forth between my desk and the water dispenser today.

I have heard of elements of all of them. (grins) Try the ones that sound interesting, which would be all of them.

I am afraid that's what I am going to do.

However, just because, I am having a cup of Taylors of Harrogate's Yorkshire Gold tea dust.

There's definitely not enough space on my desk for a water dispenser

In my cup: green tea orange & peppermint
