Loose Leaf Tea?

[akpreacherplayz]

Ordered a few things from Rishi tea and I’m hoping to use my French press for now. Also 20% off at the tea spot.com right now

@ChefBoyRG54 is a big tea guy. Maybe he will see this thread and add his advice. Then again, maybe not.

I see all

I've found stash had some great varieties and samples. For the price their excellent. Their double bergamot, super Irish breakfast and gunpowder are great, also they make some the best herbal and fruit I've found easily.

I also agree with the sachets and diffuser cup.

Also keep in mind most green teas IMO have a fairly short shelf life. I find about 6months to a year depending on manufacturing date and fermentation time.

Looks good. Let me know how you like those herbals, never messed with them.

It may seem silly but I really like Lipton loose leaf tea...its crisp and delicious in my opinion.

Puer Shop.com...USA.......there is also a Chinese site,so pay attention

Yunnan Sourcing .com.....USA....there is also a Chinese site,so pay attention
Puer shop has samples available on some items.
On both sites, if you want to buy a smaller cake, look for "Tuocha "
this is a 100 gm pressed chunk of tea. Cool presentation, take care carving it down.
Yunnan Sourcing has very fresh seasonal teas and will sell out quickly if you don't move fast.
