Hello hello fellow brothers and sisters!
Very curious to know where people stand:
1) How many of you out there prefer tea over coffee?
2) Herbal or flavored?
3) Medicinal, tonic, ceremonial, or recreational?
4) Top two types/brands/varieties?
5) How often do you drink/consume?
6) How often do you buy?
And,
7) What is the most you have ever spent on a single tea purchase and the most on a tea accessory or tool (tea pot, processing tool, cup, set, etc.)?
My answers:
1) TEAAAA!!! ALL the way; never drink coffee, only on a few occasions/when traveling and seeking something delicious on occasion.
2) Herbal
3) Tonic, close second recreational
4) I adore gynostemma tea for its many, many benefits, price, and taste; second for me is a delicious chamomile or chrysanthemum tea
5) Daily, several times a day; rarely rarely miss a day for any reason
6) I do not buy too often but try to have a consistent supply of what I love on hand, with frequent rotation of small amounts of other teas to sample and experiment over time (thankfully tea is typically* pretty cheap)
And,
7) Tea Set in Penang; not the most expensive by far, and really barely what someone with a keen eye would consider "good", but a very quality set... that I still have not used as I find it too nice to utilize
Very interested to hear what others have to say/answer from their own experience and use!
Lu Yu's blessing upon us all!
