    In all honesty, my personal philosophy is that you lose everything by default, and playing is your only chance to not lose.

    The only local tea shops we have are pretty far away (I don't drive) and they charge an arm and a leg.

    'good' depends on your definition of good.

    I consider adagio cheap tea but it is a lot better then anything that you would find at a market in the US. Adagio will have the stuff that you are looking for most likely.

    You can also check out other websites from here: https://www.reddit.com/r/tea/wiki/vendors/page_01

    I will admit I am partial to Harney and Sons since I worked at a place that sold it.

    From what I gather Harney and Sons is in the low end but above market quality tier along with adagio.

    Better quality than supermarket and cheaper in price than local tea shops is basically what I'm looking for at the moment, so that works. I'm not into the crazy flavors, but it does look like Adagio has pretty much everything I'd buy in addition to those. Thanks for the reference!

    But you can't beat decent tea being paired with an employee discount though.

    The fandom stuff is fun but more expensive for that 'fun factor'

    but yeah they have pretty much everything but I honestly only really care about their fandom blends.

    Well other comparable tea won't beat them but I doubt that they could touch the actual high end market stuff like white2tea.
