    Ah, well welcome to the tea world! A big and scary place. Tbh the best way to get started is to order a fuck ton of samples of different large tent types of tea and just explore what you like. If you like light oolongs, mayhe try some white tea? I'm personally not a huge fan, but people rave about white tea as a light tea. I'd try milk oolong too-that stuff is crazy cool. Don't know much about non-Chinese tea varietals either, but I do like hojicha (Japanese).

      I enjoy white tea blends. White tea is light enough that fruit flavors can really come through and are quite pleasant without being as sugary as juice or something similar. That said as far as I can tell this is generally a lower grade tea. Been toying with the idea of growing my own and seeing if I like creating my own blends.

      Yeah that's the plan, currently waiting on one sampler to come in from China so it could be a while lol

      I definitely will! Any recommendations for specific ones to try?

      I've heard it recommended before, so it's coming in that sampler I'm waiting on

      I'm sure I'll be talking about tea more here as my journey continues, so stay tuned. <3

        Unfortunately don't have any white tea recommendations. I've tried some samples but didn't fall in love with anything. Good luck on your journey comrade!
