I drink PG Tips Original.
Twinings mostly
Bigelow or Stash double bergamot Early Grey, or Hime Genmaicha. I’ve tried brands that cost more or less and always come back to these three.
Not sure it counts as tea, but I’ve also got a taste for Yerba Mate.
I’m all about that pukka lemon ginger or their chamomile blends!
I’ve been drinking a ton of Tazo glazed lemon loaf tea. Herbal. Splash of oatmilk and rose syrup. Ugh so good. Bigelo Oolong is good too.
Local loose-leaf. Although I do enjoy Ahmad Tea loose leaf. It’s very high quality for the price.
Local? Are you in South East Asia?
Seconding Ahmad Tea, I’m impressed by how cost effective they are.
I love PG Tips as well for a go-to grocery store black tea, as well as all of Celestial Seasonings hibiscus blends. I used to get tea from Adagio and even made a couple of custom blends but I moved to an area with a decent tea shop and local events that host smaller tea sellers so I try to get loose leaf from them when I get the opportunity.
Scottish Blend.
This one, it’s amazing.

Taylors Yorkshire Red. These days, mostly straight too. Iced or hot depending on how fast I want to consume it. Occasionally I’ll do it up with milk/cream and a bit of sugar.
I drink all kinds of different tea. At the moment I often drink Keiko Matcha and lots of really beautiful green tea my friend sent me from Taiwan. I love to coldbrew green tea in summer. Greek mountain tea my parents bring me from crete. I also buy fresh mint to make tea from some of the fresh leaves and to dry the rest.
Besides that my favorite brand is The English Teashop in all forms it comes in and Cupper/Clipper.
H.E.B.
Earl Grey, hot, straight from the replicator.
With a replicated cup or do you just stick your head into the thing and have it created directly in your mouth? 🤔
Latter, hottest option, full load.
I like the Pantenger chai, the republic of tea green, almost any black for iced tea (tetley>lipton). I often have some ito en jasmine in the fridge for when i just want to grab something on my way out. I’m also a sucker for HTeaO (a US drive thru iced tea shop), especially a little sweet strawberry passion and the rest unsweet mint.
I usually look for well reviewed, reasonably priced loose Darjeeling of whatever brand I can find when I want black tea. But mostly I mix teas and flower petals of various types depending on my mood. Lavender, chamomile, calendula, rose, etc.
I drink Caykur Organic Turkish tea every day. It’s addictive.
