It's all right but not a favorite. In researching white tea, I learned it is like green tea in that it's not fermented before drying. Unlike green tea, it's quick-dried instead of roasted. It has all the health benefits of green or black tea. Whether you choose green or white, or any other tea, is a matter of taste. I'll drink any tea, but white isn't my first choice. Hope that helps!

How timely! I was just looking at some Christmas teas at the store, and while I usually buy orange pekoe or herbal teas, I now notice something called "white tea". Do you know what white tea is? Is it herbal or not? Thanks in advance for your educated answer, Susan Hi Cheryl, this is my first time looking at your blog. How timely!

I like Darjeeling, English Breakfast, Irish Breakfast, etc. My very favorite tea bag brand, though, is Red Rose. But Twinnings and Bigelow are good, too.

I don't take as much time with my tea time as you apparently do but I always have hot tea or cocoa especially when it's chilly outside. My favorite tea is Darjeeling. And my hat is off to Billie since she can drink oolong. I think that tastes like tar, it's so strong. I remember that the first time I bought that is because it was served in one of Jayne Krentz's novels I believe. It sounded so cool that I bought some and yuck. I also like English Breakfast tea and Irish tea. I drank Earl Grey for quite a while but the bergamot finally got to me. So I will think of you the next time I have a cuppa.

Two large cups a day at the office. My husband drinks green tea. We use Twinnings Teabags. :wink: Oolong Tea is my favorite. Two large cups a day at the office. My husband drinks green tea.
