Hey tea guys. I've always thought tea was just gross. It tastes really weird and gross when I drink it, and makes my mouth feel weird and gives me a general unpleasant feeling after I've finished drinking it.

That's what I thought, at least. But I recently read this thread and realized that the only tea I've actually had is lovely generic English Breakfast / earl grey / etc teabags from grocery stores and I'm probably just drinking really lovely tea and oversteeping it!

Would you guys suggest I go and find a cafe where I can get a good cup of tea and see if I like it first, or just drop some cash on some good, quality tea and make it myself? Apparently Adagio operates very close to me, maybe I could go do some shopping there?

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.


Also, what's the consensus on bubble tea? Is it so far off from brewed hot tea (like iced tea, etc) that it doesn't even belong in this thread?
