Re: New finds
I believe my all time favorite is Lady Grey, when I can find it. Have had the pleasure of acquiring some Earl Grey while in the UK a couple years ago. I managed to find a nice British teapot to go with it as well!!

Re: New finds
Does everyone here use tea bags or loose? I've never tried loose tea and was wondering if it's that much better.

Re: New finds
I prefer loose... bit more flavor, better quality tea leaves. I'll be honest though - I don't know if I could tell the difference between bagged earl grey and loose. However, I mostly drink Chinese Stuff, which comes only in tins.

Re: New finds
I use the bags more than anything. I will drink, maybe, three or four cups of tea a day over the weekend if I don't make a pot of coffee. The bags work better for this. I used to make my tea by the pot and then I used the lose leaf tea. I don't know if I even have a tea ball anymore.

Re: New finds
Tea bags here.....I never leave enough time in my routine to make tea the "proper" way. There was a time when I made my tea from loose leaves, and as I remember, it did have a richer flavor. My lifestyle now is dash and run....the sacrifices we make.

Re: New finds
Ya,definitely bags here too. My grandmother loved loose leaf tea, but I was too young toappreciate a difference. Nowadays,I am like Ted, grab and run.

Re: New finds
Breaking away from the tea line of thought here............
I don't normally go in much for flavored coffee but my last order from Cup O Joes was for 12 ounces of Blueberry Cobbler, and another 12 of Black Forest. Just waitin for Saturday morning.

Re: New finds
First pot of Blueberry Cobbler this morning is a bit of a let down. Its my own doing. Generally, fill the pot, 3 scoops of coffee and good to go. With this stuff its going to take more coffee or less water, one of the two. Tastes a bit on the weak side and needs a bit more color.
Probably use the whole bag just trying to figure out how to make it.
