I've been drinking tea since I was 5 and we were stationed in Oxford. Mom would bring us tea in bed to warm us up in the morning because there was no heat upstairs. For me, just the smell makes me happy. I love Earl Grey or English Breakfast teas, but green tea with Jasmine or oolong teas are good too. Herbal teas are wonderful iced for the summer (instead of sugary sodas) or hot in the winter when you don't want any more caffeine.

Good luck with your tea exploration. If you ever get a chance, do a high tea somewhere. I've heard recently that the Marriott by Hyde Park has a wonderful high tea.
