I am a tea hoarder, it's my guilty pleasure. I'm also a coffee nut, but sometimes I just want an aromatic cup of tea. Teavana is having a sale with some blends/items up to 75% off! I just got 10 different teas (2oz per kind) and a 66oz infusing pot for iced brews with shipping for $35! www.teavana.com/tea-products/sale use coupon EMAIL10 for $10 off orders $30 or more. After these arrive, I will have about 40 different varietals of tea in my "collection". I also have the TARDIS and Death Star Tea infusers and a fancy bone china cup/saucer set I drink from all the time with a gold guilt rim. I'm currently enjoying a peach white tea from Harney & Sons with a wild flower honey (great for my chronic bronchitis). I find that white teas and fruit green tea blends are my favorites. The best tea for a Hot Toddy, Earl Grey (yummy!). So, anyone else a tea nut too? What is your favorite tea and your favorite way to drink it?

Oh man, I wish I had left over Christmas money, I love that place!!! I do love tea. My favourite is called "Constant Comment", which is a Bigalow tea. I love teas from all over, and used to have a hefty tea collection, but since I got married, I have used most of it up, and my husband won't let me hoard them like I used to lol.

I'm a hot tea person, I've found. My favorite tea is called Hibiscus Punch and it's from a tea room in Florida. I haven't been able to find one like it anywhere, and I'm about out! I'll have to look on there and see if they have one like it. It has the most amazing smell. I put a good bit of sugar in mine. The tea room I got my tea from had sugar crystals that were so amazing. I'll admit that most of them never made it to my tea.
I'm going to have to buy several new kinds to experiment to see if there are any new ones that I'll love.

I am a definite tea-nut. Prefer the strong blacks, but some fruity blends are good too. My selection is currently reduced because I'm moving in a few months and trying to drink my way through the tea and such so I have less to move.
My partner has a selection of Doctor Who inspired teas that are QUITE tasty, I'll have to see if I can get the website for them.

Tea is good. I can't stand sugar in my tea, think its vile. Some people but the milk in first and some people put it in last. Way I see it is if you are making tea in a teapot you put the milk in first and if you make it in a kettle you put the tea in last.

I only ever drink this one raspberry tea and I don't even drink it all that much because it's always so hot here and a lot of the time even when it's colder I just don't really feel like having warm drinks. I always put a ton of sugar in it too.

Super late in seeing this, but I am definitely a tea hoarder. I'm got the TARDIS infuser as well, and I love all sorts of tea... currently obsessed with the loose leaf variations on Earl Grey I bought at the Harney & Sons in Soho, NYC. (Such a pity that they only have two locations!) But if you can find them elsewhere, their "Paris" and "Tower of London" teas are quite a bit like Earl Grey with a twist, and both are fantastic.
I also love my red tea, maté, green teas (especially jasmine), and am obsessed with Licorice Mint in the summertime. ...basically I could talk tea all day. Feel free to talk tea with me anytime.
