This is most of my tea collection, and teapots. The other half is just "black" teas that are inside a cabinet. I also didn't bother taking pictures of the bigger teapots since I don't use them, and they aren't that pretty anyway.

My entire collection (minus the "black" teas):

Some Adagio samples, and assorted teas:

Andy, how do you decide which one to drink? You have so many! I would be so overwhelmed.

I consider it a tea tray, but it's not a real one. This one isn't like the "tea sea" ones that catch excess water.

Why aren't you on aim?

Check out the tea shrine thread although you two put all of us to shame in comparison.

Seeing all that tea has made me want to get some more! I'll have to go buy some more soon.

You all make me feel so much better about my ever-multiplying tea collection. It's becoming my obsession and I was starting to get worried! Indeed, I am in good company.
My boss laughed at me when an Adagio box came yesterday packed with two 4-oz tins and about a half dozen sample tins. Maybe it was more of a nervous what-will-become-of-her laugh rather than simple amusement???

Wow, Rabbit...a whole shelving unit set aside just for tea. And here I thought Jogrebe's duct-tape set up was so special.

Since I don't have a "shrine" I will post my pics in this thread. Unfortunately, you will have to click this link to see them.
