Oh wow, you are definitely another tea lover, like me, and a knowledgeable one! How great is this!
I agree about green tea! I have to say one of my top favourite green teas is genmaicha.
I first learned about teas with herbs years ago, and then moved to green teas. I agree about Yogi Bhajan.

yep its rare to find true tea lovers!! I guess I have about 50 different teas at home even some fantastic black teas there are darleeling first flushs which have a very light cup not so strong like the common baf stuff, but apart from yogi Bhajans I prefer loose tea.
I like some teas from Celestial Seasonings too but you cant get them over here
And yes I have genmaicha too! its a great tea! If you ever can get your hands on a decent first glush shincha japanese shadow or half shadow grown teas try to get it. they are extremly expensive, but opposite to common teas you can use them 2 to 3 times!! So if you count that in, they are not to expensive anymore.
btw. I have made a I love tea stamp too!

I am a loose leaf tea lover me-self.
Black tea is also great, I agree. Really? No Celestial Seasoning? They are pretty good, for just putting together a cup when you don't have time to put together a good steep of your own.
What about Triple Leaf? I really like that brand.
I have many loose leafs, too. I haven't counted lately, but they are all jarred and in big crates, and then I have back up stock packaged in other crates.
I will have to come search for your tea stamp as I collect all things "tea" on DA, that I find.

I never heard of triple leaf, but you should have a look here
[link]
thats a german company working via franchise worldwide
and specially under edmons they have some of the best teas
you can imagine.
The dragon phoenix pearls or the japan shinsha shimoyama are just 2 of my faves
I just dont get why its sooo much more expensive in US its not even cheap here but in US
but from the green tea classic the japan kabuse cha, the japan gyokuro, the genmaicha
and the japan sencha extra fine are very good teas too
and from the black classic ones the Darjeelings Lingia and Steinthal are fantastic
and from the blacks with aroma I love the earl grey imperior sorry I could go on and on and.....
I love the classic teas from that company, I cant afford very often,
but once or twice a year I buy a little bit from them
oh and if you look for my stamp dont forget to visit the dev I was allowed to use
for my stamp an absolutely amazing artwork!

Wow, thanks for the link, cause I went and then I saved it to my bookmarks!
No problem, I could go on and on, too. It's really fun.
When I had a house with a big yard and a green house, I used to grow and dry the herbs for my own teas. It was the best back then...
But I make due now with what I have found is best bulk teas near by.
But you are right things are more expensive here. sigh.
I faved your stamp and the dev you got it from. I love both!!
You might like to look at:
redblossomtea.com
for fun at least, cause maybe is expensive, I've not bought from the website. There is a place in Chinatown of San Francisco where I've gotten some things pretty cheaply.

great page I have the dragon pearl only from tea gschwender
not all things are more expensive! Clothings are a lot cheaper
and gas/fuel is too and dont ask what you have to pay here for
Reeses peanutbutter cups (my hubbys fave) or betty crocker
muffin mix its ridicolous
do you live countryside now or town? I live more countryside
and i even harvest burning nettles in spring and make delicious
spinach from or wood garlic (hope thats the correct english name)
and mix that with cottage cheese
glad you do and yep I think the original teadev is awesome!

I guess it depends on what it is.
I think you could say I live in the town. It's not a big city though, but yes a town. I think it's great you can harvest those things! I love it!
I used to live in a MUCH SMALLER town, almost country... and I had a MUCH bigger yard... and grew everything myself and had own greenhouse, all my own herbs where I grow my own herbs for tea... those were the days, and one of my favourite things from back then, but many other things are better about nowadays.
Only living in the bigger town, tinier home, even tinier yard... those things not better. But... I traded some things for other things.

I grew up in a big city but I never would want to live in one ever again, countryside is best
tiny villages. I have to drive 5 minutes by car to reach
the next little town where I can do some minor shopping
and half an hour for the next bigger town or more than an hour for the next big city
but I honestly dont mind 90% of the time
