Tea connoisseurs

Hey, I remember reading some great threads here some time ago about really good high quality teas and tea kettles and specialty tea sites. For some reason I lost the links on them.

Would any of the resident OOT tea experts kindly clue me in on what their favorite gourmet tea sites were again?

Thanks.

I found the one I used to check out all the time, www.uptontea.com. It was highly recommended by many OOT posters. No idea where it went in my bookmarks -- probably on my other old machine.

I order from Chado Tea regularly. I drink an insane amount of peppermint tea and the ability to order in bulk appeals to me.

I'm so jealous that you guys have standard supermarket tea as good as PG Tips. I keep a box at work.

I'm certainly no expert but I do love tea. This is where I order my tea. If you are ever in rural Connecticut you should drop by their tasting room.
