i only drink tea cultivated in south america, north america, or great britain. frick china and frick the people who live there. homosexuals running around saying "wahh no just say you dont like the chinese government reeee" frick you, the citizens are just as fricking shit and they think no better of you either. chinese people are raised to think anyone outside of china is sub human, and youre fricking defending them, cuck
>tea cultivated in GB
>some stupid spider reaction pic
>quoting me as if its ironically saying tea has never been grown on the british isles

>being triggered by reaction pic while gulping on some shit "tea"
keep an eye for those homosexuals running around you anon they are all CCP agents and might hide under your bed
Drinking any tea outside of asia literally means you drink some shitwater. Enjoy yer lipton shite. All the best teas have always come from japan and china
imagine trusting "she" chingpingbingbong, the same moron who cant keep his own people from eating sewage oil and buying plastic pellets that look like rice. hows that arsenic in that tea taste btw? i hear the smog in china is lovely this time of year
>All the best teas have always come from japan and china
no it's india
frick off suresh, nobody cares about your shit stained fingers
>yeah bro the best tea comes from the country that’s known for cooking with gutter oil, just buy expensive tea from a country that operates as one giant scam, where every citizen grows up in a culture of scamming
chinese are literal subhumans on a different level than even Black folk and indians. An American shilling for China is even more embarrassing than a white guy obsessed with bmwf porn

I will now buy youre tea.
>chinks and anyone who deals with then are honest businessmen
it’s ok placebo effect works better the more deluded you are. I’m sure your gutter tea tastes great bro
Tastes like Eucalyptus with Pomelo and Sugar Cane. Thanks.
>pic related, aged purple varietal black & white tea
>some stupid spider pic
Frick you i like it
Just say you don't like the Chinese government
i dont like the chinese government.
>or the "citizens"(slaves)
only herbal, caffeine was messing up my head or something *eats a big mac*
This is a dumb meme but puer is good tea. Back when I was doing finals in college I'd switch between espresso and tea throughout the day to keep that stimmie dose up.
I always meant to try to make beer with it but I havent got around to it yet, I think a cream ale would be a good base.
Pu'er is like 200mg of caffeine. Might as well just go for coffee. Why do you need to get zooted anyway. Take the Da Hong Pao tea drunk pill.
Where can you find good quality Da Hong Pao? I have a tea store in my town that gets really good quality Tie Guan Yin and Silver Needles but I can't find anywhere with Da Hong Pao, which sucks since I really wanna try it.
Real one is too expensive because theres like 5 original producing trees left . There are artificial ones that scale in price depending on quality. Just find a good seller online.
The "artificial" ones are clones of clones of the remaining 5 mother trees, so they nearly taste the same except they're much younger. In worst cases, they're clones of clones of clones of a mother, but they're still genetically identical.
I have tea grown and processed in Mississippi. Decent at best, but mad expensive for what it is. China was, is, and forever will be king.
Try Floating Leaves, they sell good oolongs.
Thanks, I'll look it up
I throw a brick of pu ehr in every batch of mead I make
Can you elaborate? Share on /tea/
what the FRICK is wrong with yunnan sourcing?
Nothing. The meme exists to agitate.
Nothing wrong, pretty good teas here and there. Just the next step for the beginner.

nothing beats a sweet jasmine tea
Can anyone qrdpill me on different types of tea ?
I don't know which tea to drink when
For the Chinese side.
Black, White, Green, Yellow, Oolong, Hei, Puerh.
Personal recommendation would be a Oolong tea, particularly a Tieguanyin as it's butter/savory/flowery, and it isn't too hard on your stomach as a green/black.
Americans drink sweet iced tea or Arizona/Lipton.
This doesn't tell me anything about the effects of tea
It's not a magic potion. It's a hydrating beverage with more history than any one religion. Drink tea because it's delicious and a good hobby.
Keep in mind that this is in my own experience and that results may vary, but, Green tea wakes me the frick up. Oolong make me drowsy/drunk. Puerhs, specially shou or aged Shengs make me feel a light cannabis high, and blacks don't do anything for me other than upset an empty stomach. Honestly the drunk/high effect are randomized and either puerh or oolong can get you that. But for green tea, you have to make sure you're drinking it the year that it's picked for it to be good.
According to wikipedia for the US "about 85% of the tea consumed is served cold, or iced".
Is this actually true? It sounds outlandish. I have never drunken cold or iced tea that I can recall (it would have been before I was 10 if I did because I would recall it), yet here we have tea every meal and another literally just called "tea".
I mix alcohol with pure leaf
Literally the only tea you need is Ginseng and Maca root tea.
Raises test levels by a quite a decent margin.
Started drinking black tea when coffee was upsetting my stomach. Now I do
>coffee on training days
>black tea on recovery days
Black tea, especially cheap bag rubbish, is undeniably more upsetting to your stomach.
What should I try then?
t. American tea n00brz
Especially if you're looking for something easy on the stomach, try ripe puerh. Damn good drink.
Shit yeah. Try some.
Thanks I’ll look it up. I have acid reflux and especially if I have coffee before eating in the morning my appetite is gone
i drink sleepytime tea at night
I used to until I started drinking kombucha which is better and tastier.
Now I only drink green tea after heavy meals.
kombucha is possibly the hardest drink ever devised, i used to buy huge bottles of it during quarantine and downed like 1 a day. delicious.
I only turk turkish tea brewed out of my turkish kettle, you guys fricking suck lol
i dont understand 99% of these
someone help
I don't get any of it either. But I always laugh at the super detailed soijacks of other people's hobbies. Idk why, it's hilarious.
>tfw I use the default Amazon order gaiwan
s-stop
Also memes, aside does anyone have recs on where to get nice teaware that isn't ridiculously expensive?
Yunnan Sourcing and King Tea Mall.
Mostly because teagays definitely know something the vast majority of Westerners do not: good tea. It's esoteric and fun. Couple that with a fairly high barrier to entry and you have a natural gatekeeping. For that reason, it's a great hobby. Go lurk on IST for the tea thread. It's one of the better hobby generals that isn't on /tg/.
You don't know what esoteric means
You don't know what puerh is
I don't and I don't give a frick what fricking puerh means b***h
The irony lol
There's no irony because I don't use words I don't know the meaning to, low IQ Black person
Does the tea general have a lot of good information on tea and teaware sources too? I only ask because I have a shop in my town with good quality oolongs, blacks, and great sets for single steeping, but they don't sell gongfu tea sets and the selection of oolongs and puers is really limited.
All in all I'm pretty new to tea, I started drinking it around February and am just trying to learn anything I can. For gongfu preparation I go by this guide: https://thechineseteashop.com/pages/gong-fu-cha-the-complete-guide-to-making-chinese-tea , but I might see what kind of info I can find on IST if the general is good
Also thanks for mentioning Yunnan Sourcing and King Tea Mall, I wasn't the Anon that originally asked but I'll probablt check those places out
Same, IST, /x/ and IST has some good ones but I didn't save any. I hope to see more of these wojaks for even more obscure hobbies.
Really specific terminology for a type of fermented tea called Puerh. Basically the wine of teas. And the types of people that drink it.
is Puerh tasty
It's an acquired taste.
Shou puerh is what's most commonly sold in western markets, the cheap ones taste godawful, like fish and mud.
The good ones taste like dried berries with petrichor and leather.
Sheng puer on the other hand, is more complex and has more variety of taste.
I drink huge amounts of Yorkshire Tea (decaf). I love it
More tea memes, please.
why are teagays so fricking autistic holy shit
this is my first time seeing teamemes but its beyond normal autism of other niche subcultures
and whats up with this insane level of smug arrogance and self importance
>le don't do a heccing gatekeeperino!!!
>nooooooooo!!!! Don't be arrogant about having good tea! you must pretenderino that my shit tea is for heckim good boi chonkers like me who drinks it with suge and milkies!!!

I have Pu'er tea bags I get from my local Chinese supermarket but I feel like I'm not getting the full experience. I would have thought fermented tea would taste very different to regular tea but the bags I've been getting just taste like tea. Good tea, but just tea. I'm thinking of ordering loose leaf to see if the flavor is different.
Loose leaf puer is a little hard to find in good quality. You're looking for compressed tea, like cakes. If you want to try a step up, buy a 100 gram tuo or 500 gram sleeve of Taetea V93 off of Amazon. Don't buy other teas from there, imo.
If you drink from tea bags it's 100% shit.
Good tea is paid by weight and is loose leaf. Get a compressed puerh cake and pry it up.
I love tea, Black tea for mornings and early afternoons, herbal tea at night. Ceylon tea is my favourite atm but I drink Assam when i need stuff done.
I just started drinking green tea this week instead of diet soda. Definitely a different feeling. I had green tea yesterday after my lunch and it made me feel hungry after the fact.
I used to drink green tea after every meal. think it's a good practice.
Ok so what puer should i buy?
teabros why dont you just eat the tea bag insides altogether? do u not get the benefits if u just eat it
Antioxidants are a meme. They can't get inside to the mitochondrial DNA. Plus I don't like bitter teas.
No, you get something else. Aside from the taste element, if you just consumed all the tea leaves raw you would get a lot of tannins and other things that aren't good for you as well as toxins in it, similarly if you just ate coffee raw. Why not just eat all the wheat in the field? A lot of plants are turned into pharmaceuticals, why not just eat them all and get the benefits?
There is one tea though that you consume all of the leaves - matcha tea. You may have heard of it, it's become a bit of a meme online. Only the best quality leaves are taken and at a very young part of their development before they have matured fully. You can then grind that up into matcha powder and drink it. It's delicious.
>that pic
wtf is going on here, am i out of touch or is your pic rel completely schizo
I just drink either Yorkshire Gold or whatever Lipton I have lying around
Had some good local green tea, too
