Twinings loose leaf Russian Earl Grey for me.

It resembles Twinings Earl Grey and is bargamot and lemon flavoured tea. It has a more pronounced Earl Greyish flavour than Twinings Earl Grey that is bland in comparison. The loose leafed variant has a better flavour than the tea bags.
We picked these up at the market recently and while they may not be actual tea from tea leaves I couldn't think of a better thread to share them. These are wonderful drinks for the winter months, made in Korea and are really much like jars of jelly. A spoonful in a warm cup and it's very enjoyable. The Citron has an orangey flavor with bit of orange peel in there and the ginger has bits of ginger floating around. Just tried the ginger today and it's my favorite of the two, but both are terrific.

Happy new year all. I'm seeing the new year in with freshly opened Kagoshima sencha Tsuyuhikari.

Has a wonderful nutty, earthy aroma in the warm pot and tastes exactly how it smells—excellent.

Hey guys, looking for website recommendations again. I'm in Ireland at the moment and running out of tea; does anybody know an Irish/UK/EU based website that's good for Japanese teas? Thanks!
Why not try ebay?

Well-intended but I wouldn't. Quality doesn't look all that.
You say you're running low, where do you normally buy from?
There aren't really any EU-based sellers, not that I know of or would recommend anyway. If you want Japanese tea, you need to be buying it from Japan. Just find a balance of buying enough that you feel makes the extra bit of postage costs worthwhile.

Never bought from Thes Du Japon but I hear they're good sellers. The rest I use at least semi-regularly.
