I’m on a weekend vacation and forgot to bring my tea and the international grocery didn’t have it, so I settled for Darjeeling. I can barely notice the difference. It’s so subtle that it might as well just be a different tea brand.

    Sounds like good advice, thanks.

    Although I probably DO need tea that’s tolerant of poor brewing. I have small children (and ADHD) and am very bad about forgetting that I have tea brewing…

      Before kids, microwaved tea is an absolute travesty. After kids, it’s an unfortunate necessity.

      I personally have cheap(ish) teas that priduce a drinkable cup. I also have the good teas that deserve more care and attention.

      If you’re interested, these guys provide the best tea I’ve found so far. (They also supply a number of the best tea shops in Bath). It’s definitely not cheap tea, but I currently have several kg of it in the house 😅
