Looking for a good tea

I was wondering what is the best tea maker out there and where are some good places to get it. I love chamomile. I am sure I am not drinking the most flavorable brands.(just grocery store brands.) Would love some input.

Thanks, D

Chamomile is a weed. You plant some in your backyard, cut it and dry it in the microwave or in a bundle in a dry location, and make your tisane with it. It is very easy to grow, and it will taste better when it is comparatively fresh.

No reason to involve some manufacturer somewhere. It's not like actual tea.

For chamomile, grocery store is fine. Like Scott said, chamomile is a weed and it is grown like a weed and you can't expect much. If you are looking for advice on tea, white, green, red(black), pu-er, this is a good forum. I've also seen reasonable advice on mate and roobois. But chamomile is, well, chamomile.

Upton tea has Egyptian chamomile, with several good reviews. Toci

That's Upton, not Lipton. While you're at their site, you can look at the huge number of teas they have to offer. If you order or request a catalogue, they'll send you one. Toci

Ten Ren has chamomile teabags. I've had good service ordering from both Upton and Ten Ren. However, I seem to be allergic to chamomile, so I don't drink it. Toci

I like the folks at Ten Ren, but I wouldn't pay their prices for something as generic as chamomile.

$2.75 for 20 bags. However, by the time you add in postage plus all the other teas and things you'd order with it, it might get fairly pricey. Toci

Try Darjeeling tea, considered as the "champagne" among all the teas of the world. It is much sought after among tea connoisseurs and is commonly sold for outrageous prices. However, top-quality Darjeeling is offered at an unbeatable price at

. I like the green Darjeeling most. It has a mild and fresh taste and is beneficial to health.

Well, well, Tea Connoiseur. I can't help but notice that you forgot to say, "I have no business connection with this company, just a satisfied customer." Your post smells like SPAM to me. Is it?

By the way, Darjeeling is a lovely and well respected tea. It is NOT *the* champagne among all the the teas of the world. It's one of the nice choices we have.

Spam elsewhere please.

Hmmph. At least Mr./Ms. connoisseur didn't pretend to be a satisfied customer. But a single first-flush and a single green, unknown year and unknown estate, seem pretty slim pickings. Lots of prose though.

Hi Michael,

I'm new to any form of newsgroup, and I didn't mean to produce SPAM at all -- so I've removed my message.

Terribly sorry about that.

Best, TC

Please don't feel "run off". You're more than welcome to stick around and talk tea - generically. We just get a little testy about commercial advertisements in this group.

That goes double from me. Stick around, but don't SPAM us, now that you know the style.

Hey D, Chamomile is my favorite too, I love the flavor & taste of it! Halmari tea has nice chamomile tea & at a reasonable rate. You can try out their other varieties too, they are good.
