(Don't hate me) I don't drink tea. It's not that I don't like it, I just don't like drinking it.

Coffee is infinitely better. And may I add that herbal teas are evil. They all smell really nice and different but they end up just tasting of differently-coloured hot water.

Earl Grey. Oh yeah.

by **rae** on Mon Mar 15, 2004 1:15 am

Constant Comment, but in the absense of that, Earl Grey and sometimes Lady Grey, depending on the mood. Mmmm...tea....

(although there is a shop back home that does a yummy blackcurrant tea but I don't get it on a regular enough basis for it to be the favourite)

Agree on the topic of herbal tea, but I think tea has a much more delicate flavour than coffee.

I lack refinement in hot drinks, I can't tell the difference between some £2.50/cup nonsense and an old bag of tetley. If I have to drink something hot, it's got to be hot chocolate. And only then, decent stuff - most is just mud.

Tea.... Lapsang Souchong

Dark, smokey and great

Failing that, mug of army-issue.

by **Andrew Hardie** on Mon Mar 15, 2004 1:41 am

was this thread just made for me or what?

Lapsang Souchong, Darjeeling, Rose Pouchong and keemun are my favorites.

First Flush Green Darjeeling is probably the best tea by a mile though, but its price reflects that!

Peppermint, or if I'm in the Mackintosh Tea Rooms in Glasgow, rose petal or orange blossom. divine.katebush

I would lay claim to being one of the biggest tea drinkers in St Andrews.

My favourite type of tea is probably Assam, but changes throughout the day. When I wake up I enjoy an English breakfast, Irish Breakfast or Assam. About 11 I have a nice cup of Darjeeling, and around lunch I usually have a nice English Afternoon, or Lapsang Souchong. Later in the afternoon, say around three I will have a darjeeling, or an Earl Grey. After this I am likely to partake of either English B or Assam.

However, the best tea that I have ever drank was when I went to visit a friend's uncle in Darjeeling (the foothills of the Himalayas).
He said "All your English tea is dust!" and gave us some of his special reserve, which was the most mind-blowing stuff I have every tasted. I would back him up on his claim.
He sent me home with a small tea chest full, which lasted me a couple of months.

But it was a good time, as I got to ride around on an elephant, have servants attend my every need and generally pretend the British Empire was still in full swing.

Is there anywhere where first flush can be obtained in St Andrews, because I have never seen it here.

English breakfast, brewed for ages with lots and lots of milk. Wonderful.

I like Ceylon tea, just to be different ... though you really can't go wrong with Tetley's or Yorkshire Tea! Sorry if I disappointed anyone expecting a fancy foreign one!

Did you know a kind of tea,which has been stored for more than ten years?
