There are a ton! I'm a big fan of black flavored teas - here are some you'll probably like. Try Adagio's black coconut tea...it's simply wonderful - one of my favorites. A few others you might like are the (black) lemon and (black) apricot. All of these teas take sugar and creamer really well.

If you're looking for something less sweet, try Adagio's (black) forest berries or (black) Christmas blend.

Outside of Adagio, you should try The Republic of Tea's black blends. I particularly like their Vanilla Almond, Blackberry Sage, and Cinnamon Plum.

Much more sophisticated in taste are the non-flavored black teas - there's something much more satisfying about a delicate Darjeeling or a nice malty Assam. Definitely consider giving these a try!

Im more of a fan of the green teas. For an interesting experience try out gunpowder, hojicha, dragonwell, citron green, kukicha, and sencha. each has their own distinct experience and im sure you'll fall in love with at least one of them. ^^
There are four advantages to green tea... Its beauty, its taste, its aroma, and its health benefits. Learn to enjoy the first three and you'll forget you drank it for the fourth. ^^

*smiles* The phrase means that tea is very very good, very cool.
Although my neighbors are all barbarians,
And you, you are a thousand miles away,
There are always two cups on my table.

Urban Dictionary says it like this:

3. rocks: (adjective) something that's sublime or good
Example: You saw that movie! It rocks!

In this case... Tea rocks!

Alternative ways to state the same thing:

I find tea quite extraordinary.
Tea kicks ass!
I love tea.
Tea is indescribably good.

Aww drat I was hoping someone invented hard pieces of tea that can get stuck in your shoe. 'hold on a sec I got a rock in my shoe.... oh look a tea rock *pops the rock in his mouth* all good now!'
