JK tea had a high-fire TGY that was remarkably inexpensive, that I like better than Sea Dyke's. The complexity isn't that great (still enough to not be completely boring), but the red tin Sea Dyke that I have is even less complex.

You usually get what you pay for with this stuff, so it's better to get the upper-end of what you can afford (or are willing to spend) rather than the cheapest you can find.

I really wish Just4Tea was still around.

Got me some high fire TGY and SX in Malaysia for $3.50 for 100g. So cheap it scared me at first, but it's from a govt. certified company. About to revisit the SX now!

Restaurant grade stuff, but plenty drinkable. :)
