Got any fellow brewers out there? If so please share your favorite teas, looking for something new right about now...
I personally am always down for some Jasmine Pearls or a Rose Green

I have a tea wand, a small personal pot with strainer and a travel mug with a strainer built in. I have never had the Lapsang but I do love the oolong and jasmine. Great choices.

I used to like Chai... Then I got sick off of it. I remember how good it tastes, but if I get near it I get sick. :(

We have a decent selection at the moment...

Morning:
Lemon ginger green on sunny days or for upset stomachs/sore throats, Market Spice black (orange + cinnamon) on cozy sweater days.

Daytime:
Himilayan or Pumpkin Spice chai, coconut almond black, raspberry earl grey

Evening:
After Eight or Gingerbread rooibos

... we also have an amazing one containing licorice root that helps if you're feeling congested

its so damn good. i was in san fran and ended up at a  "tea tasting" place and we tried the rose along with a ton of others but that one stuck with me the most.

this is what i use

http://vitaltealeaf.net/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=2&products_id=17

the best part is that after you've made a cup, you take the roses out and let them dry and then you can reuse the roses for another 5-6 cups.

I love traditional Chinese or Japanese green tea that tastes light and like grass, but in a good way. Clears your mind.
