Default Need some new teas, your favorites?

Hi Dominic
personal experience taught me that if you like full-flavored black you
won't necessarily like full-flavored greens and vice versa. Still, if
you like bold flavors, I'd go for Yunnan, Keemun or Assam. A Darjeeling
is always a good way into blacks--try Castleton. Another idea would be
to buy several sample sizes instead and have something different every
day until you find a tea you really like. A number of online shops do
sample sizes at very very reasonable prices.
Hope this helps
