My black tea palate is certainly more Chinese oriented. Yunnan Pure Gold, Golden Monkey or another smooth, flavorful congou seems just right for me now. I find even top quality Assams to be too astringent and harsh. On the green side I'm more into japanese teas, while oolongs from both China and Taiwan regularly gets into my Yixing pots. But since I'm constantly exploring new teas I expect to discover new favorites from all tea countries.
