If you want a milder tea that still packs some flavor, get yourself some Oolong

I like it. 2 bags in my 16 oz cup. Some days I do 1 green tea bag and one lapson saochong smokey tea bag. Good stuff.

Green tea when it's fresh and prepared properly is interesting and complex. I only get it at places that specialize in it. Non-chain sushi restaurants, ask if the tea is fresh. I never make it at home because it's just not my thing.

That pack of Celestial Seasonings that's been sitting on the shelf at Albertsons for two years tastes like wet cardboard.

Gun powder green tea is my current favorite.

Brew for 3 minutes at 180 degrees.

Any longer and it starts getting bitter.

No sweetener needed.

Possibly the dumbest statement I’ve ever seen on this site. Haha!

It’s amazing. I can get anyone hooked on Moroccan mint or jasmine pearl. Then, expand from there. Properly brewed and of decent quality of course. I’m hooked on gyokuru now. I really want to get proper white tea but I like green too much to try it!

Not my thing. I accidentally got the green tea with jasmine one time and I had to stay off tea for a few days. Not interested in drinking lotion. Just dried leaves for me, and burnt beans (yes that sounds equally dumb but it's just better). No sugar, no anything added.

This is my favorite:

Mellow Monk

Try the Top Leaf. It’s more of a “grassy” green.

Try Spearmint tea. It is a relaxing and flavorful drink. Look it up on the internet for more information. Here is my latest harvest of native wild Spearmint that I am growing.

My Spearmint drying.


The harvest from one batch.

Do you have a preferred source you buy from?
