    If you like fruity nuances Ceylon could be a thing, you get good quality without spending a lot

    If you like darker, maltier and deeper taste, you can go for Assam, there is a lot of quality types and prices

      Literally my two favorite tea varieties. I switch between them, though I like Assam just a bit more.
