Hello!
I've loved tea ever since my pre-school tea party days but In the last few years I've really started exploring tea and now I find I'm very picky about what I drink. I've been lurking here to learn more so I can become really snooty about my tea drinking.
Just kidding!
I really want to figure out what I really enjoy so I can stop just guessing and buying stuff that I don't enjoy and having it just sit on the shelf.

It is funny, you are the third person in 2 days who I have heard say, "life is too short to drink bad tea."
I have a tendency to hang onto bad tea...letting it sit for a year or two til I relegate it to the "tea bath" inventory.
blah blah blah SENCHA blah blah blah!!!

Why not take a tea bath with all the old tea we are not going to drink? Sounds good to me.
