Over the last few months, I've really been getting into teas and infusions. I've mostly been buying stuff from T2 and Whittard, with the latter being the preferred option. Seems like I'm on an unending quest to try every kind of tea available.

Currently working my way through Whittard's Vanilla Sundae: https://www.whittard.co.uk/tea/tea-type/black-tea/...

Is anyone else a tea monster? Any recommendations?

I order a few kilos each year from http://glenburnteaestate.com. And I'll use Rakuten for genmaicha/sencha because it's cheaper for large quantities.

The really fancy shop in the UK is Mariages Freres. It's French, as are a few of the top end tea merchants. And proper expensive, but they have some teas that are difficult to get elsewhere like Maori Blue.
Good to know smile

I still have a good >600g of stuff to work through but will keep it in mind for next time.
