What is the best type of tea?

Twinnings earl grey, with a couple spoons(or so) of sugar and milk.

Big green tea fan. Twinnings is pretty good. A little ginseng tea when sick goes a long way as well.

Forget the tea.

Kentucky STRAIGHT Bourbon WHISKEY, thank you very much. Steeped with a good beer chaser.

As a communist I must say herbal tea, since proper tea is theft.

I have at least 0.5 liter of it every day for about 15 years.

I prefer strong dark teas. I tried to like green tea, but I haven't found a good one yet.

The Japanese ones seem to be stronger than the Chinese. I'm not sure whether that's a stone law though.

I like Darjeeling very much. However, the bag First Flush (real tea) didn't meet my expectations. That may be bad luck or a fooled sense because I expected something stronger.

And have you been feeling internally cleansed all that time?

I just bought some real Earl Grey and a tea holder as per BKS's suggestion. I'm hooked.

Mind you, if I ever told him I put the tea ball in the cup with the milk, honey, and spoon and drink it like that, he'd probably row across the Atlantic and smack upside the head.

My cup of tea looks like a Borg. :grin2:

Visualize this.

A large white mug with the tea ball in it, the wire chain hooked to the side, and a yellow plastic kid's fork sticking out of the cup. It was closest in the dish rack."Slurp!"

I do not know, it's impossible to compare with 16 years ago. While I'm not unaware of the claimed cleaning powers, I just drink it for breakfast instead of black tea.

At times, I have a cup during the day or night to enjoy. Usually it's either black or green tea for that.

No, but I'm sure you would not appreciate its (non) esthetic qualities.

In order to placate the finer comportment of my European friends here, I am right now, at this very moment, making proper tea in a proper tea pot just as BKS would have me do.

I'm feeling more civilized by the minute. :toff:

And just where is my dearest AdrianII?
