Anyone else like black tea? What brand?

I have started to develope an appreciation for the bland taste of green tea.

Any suggestions on a real good green tea brand?

I suppose I could just go to someplace like:

http://www.blacktea.com

or maybe....

http://www.greentea.com

or perhaps

http://www.teaworld.com

and research the world of tea for myself but I wanted to fully embroid myself into the new and improved O-Club and see if there were any others out there that liked tea, like me?

I like unsweetened green tea, but I just buy the Safeway "select" brand. I've had a few different brands but can't really tell any difference between any of them.

I currently have "STASH" brand and it's pretty good.

Earl Grey and a couple pinches of sugar and that is it for me.

Not a big fan of green tea at all. To me it tastes like bitter water.

Big fan of Irish breakfast teas. Earl Grey is good, but if you have only had the prepackaged stuff you dont know what you are missing in flavor. They have a couple of really good tea stores here in Honolulu where they sell it like coffee beans. I can go in one of those places and just stand there smelling the tea leaves. Try buying online and make your own teabags or buy a cheap teaball at wal mart. The taste difference is incredible.

Im boring when it comes to tea.. i stick with Twinings Earl grey... nothing in it.

Same with coffe really, plain plack coffe with no sugar, milk, cream or alcohol (yes you heard me). Not because i dont like allt the stuff you can have in it, but im abit to lazy to spend time doing all that fancy stuff

Latte can be good but only one at a time and far apart.
