Hello, Thanks to everyone who is contributing and reading this thread. I've gotten some wonderful input as well as some good online merchants that I look forward to patronizing.
My experience with Adagio is quite limited, but it's one of the first tea websites I was intrigued by. My girlfriend had purchased a gift package which included a few herbals and the infamous Ingenuitea. Let me tell you, I love this thing to death. I especially like watching the leaves in their natural state, and how the gadget infuses tea. To me, it's pretty cool. The Adagio website is also a nice source of information. I like reading the tea reviews and the tea chat forum. To a beginner like me, Adagio seemed a top online tea merchant.
Then I discovered this forum and realized that I didn't know much at all. There is so much to learn about tea, including where to purchase your tea. I still enjoy visiting Adagio for their forum and reviews, but thanks to everyone's input on this forum, I've learned that you can always learn more about tea, including where to purchase it.
