Lots of options here. You could go for a sampler, which has small amounts of several teas. That way, you can try them and find out which ones you like. Or you can start with basics such as a breakfast tea blend, a green tea blend, a Darjeeling tea blend, or a black Ceylon. I strongly recommend The English Tea Store as a place to start, since they have all of these, but you can also find things like this locally. Flavored teas are not good to start with, since you often can’t taste the tea. You might try some here and there as you learn more about tea. Hope this helps!

I used to enjoy McGRath’s Irish Breakfast teabags – can you tell me what currently available tea would most closely resemble that?

Hi, Hattie,
I don’t know whether or not Twinings of London continues to make that particular tea, but in any case ETS does not carry it. I’m very sorry, Hattie! If there’s anything else I can help you with, please let me know.

Hattie is a wonderful name, by the way!

Take care,

Tim

Twinings of London sold an Herb Tea Caffeine Free titled SUNSET ROSE a couple years ago. I absolutely loved this tea and saved the box so that I could buy more. However, no matter where I look, no store seems to sell Twinings Sunset Rose Herb Tea. Do you still produce this tea? How may I get some of it?

I grew up with the wonderful smell of sassafras aroma in my grandma’s home it is still one of my very favorite teas. My aunt would dig and bring to our house a root and grandmother would clean it up and put it in a big ole pot, that smelled so so good.Today I have found it in one market only bottled.
I also find liptons decafe very pleasant tasting, most any tea with orange peko is not as bitter as the black.
I am happy to have come accross your site. I love the store things, like the tea pots.
