1I love loose tea. If you've never tried it, or all the different types out there my favorite place to get it is on the web at The Tea Table, http://www.theteatable.com/. It's got everything, tea party supplies, tea pots & cups, every kind of tea imaginable, books, everything. It also has alot of imformation such as what difference between the types of teas and how to brew them. The best thing about this place is that when you place an order, even if it's less than 5 bucks, you get to pick 5 different free samples. The samples make about 3 cups. My favorite is Buckingham Palace Garden Party, its a blend of black and green teas scented with jasmine and cornflower petals.
