Lavender Philtrum posted:edit: Worth mentioning I'm a trainride away from the city of Chicago and I'm willing to spend a silly amount of money on a cup of coffee/tea, so going to an Intelligentsia or something is possible. I just want to know what would be best for a first timer. I also didn't like black tea for a while and started out by drinking herbal teas. I found it easier to get into whatever is the proper term for flavored teas (example: peach teas are awesome). Maybe give something like peppermint tea a try since it's so different from what you've been used to? You can get mint green/whatever tea if you want something that's not just herbal. I don't know what Agadio's policies are, but the small local tea shop close to where I live will actually steep small sample amounts for free if you're not sure what you want or if you want it. (Unfortunately I live nowhere near where you do, so I don't know if there's anything comparable in your part of the US.) I buy loose leaf tea at Central Market; if you have a similarly fancy grocery store where you can buy tea in bulk, you might be able to just buy small amounts of different things to try. I usually buy around an ounce to try something new out but could buy even less if I wanted to.

Sirotan posted:Anyway, thanks for all the suggestions, I think I'm mostly hesitant to try tisanes because I've had so many horrible ones in the past. I like a strong flavored tea, but not when its cinnamon and flowers and fruits and poo poo all thrown together. The chicory or dandelion coffee intrigues me, I may have to hunt some down. Do you like mint tea? Mint tea is awesome. There's also a cheap, bagged lemon tea I really like (from HEB if you happen to live in Texas). Just don't get anything with only lemongrass; the one I'm thinking of has I don't even know what else in it and is a dark red.
