Leaf Tea

[homedeeth]

Does anyone still drink leaf tea or is it tea bags all the way?
If you do drink leaf tea can you recommend a nice flavour other than the black teas that I drink e.g breakfast, assam

Looks as though leaf tea has died a death in most homes except perhaps the grandest of houses.

Every now and again I make a pot of loose leaf tea for the family and I use goog old PG but I have discovered from an asian grocery store 2 teas that we've tried and really liked:- Kentea and one called Wagh bakri (I know the latter translated means lion/sheep) but I promise you it is tea!
I dont like earl grey or any of the 'perfumed' teas but it will depend on your taste.

I have teapots but never get around to using them. I drink mostly coffee as the hot drink of choice. I try to have more tea in the afternoon but convenience dictates bags. And I have difficulty getting through 80 of them before they start to taste less brilliant than desired. Were I to get leaf tea I think I'd just get the well known brands but in loose leaf form.

So are you asking for green teas ? Or flavoured infusions ?
