I've been drinking about 4 or 5 different teas per week. Usually at least 2 or 3 different teas per day! I've bought so many samples I have to keep switching it up to figure out what I like and what I don't.

I started my morning with Darjeeling #2. Had a cup of Spiced Apple Chai after lunch, and am now on a cup of Yunnan Jig.

I really liked the spiced apple chai, but it wasn't particularly "summery". I think I'll enjoy that one more when the fall "crisp" weather sets in.

A few days ago, snapped this at work:

When I do this with my evening paperwork, I can get in 1 or 2 teas gongfu'd, upping the daily tally to 3 or 4 different teas.

the last week or so I've been working with 3 teas. But that's mainly because it's all I have right now.

Either it's Ti kuan yin, yunnan noir or thai chai. I have some orange rooibos and some raspberry patch but those don't count because I just haven't been feeling those lately.

started my teaday with matcha matsu and continued with yutaka midori supreme :)

I´m really getting into matcha...it´s been my first tea of the day for a few days in a row now :) I´m excited to be getting my bamboo whisk and scoop along with kiri no mori from O-Cha...should be arriving at the end of next week (just before my birthday! :mrgreen: ) if it takes the same as last time I ordered by regular airmail from Japan. :D

11-13 different types per week, now that I'm back at school. Tea is my favorite study aid. :mrgreen:

Rose congou earlier this afternoon; iced green tea with dinner; just finished some really yummy houjicha.

4-5 currently. I have 2 regulars that I drink just about every day, and ten I switch off others. My average is probably going to increase, though, for two reasons. 1) I am ramping up my oolong exploration (have lots of samples set to arrive soon), and 2) I'm running low on those favs, but with the investment in all thouse samples I've run out of money with which to replace it :oops:
I gong-fu brew most of the time, which limits the number of diff teas I can fit in a day. I can get 10 brews easily out of some of my favs.

continuing my teaday with organic rooibos...I´m feeling like I need the anti.allergy effects after working in the garden to move some rose bushes.

I drink 5-6 different teas each week, black, pu-erh, flavored whites, flavored rooibos, a variety of tisanes and an occasional green tea. :D
