    @Nick not strictly Earl Grey, but my usual tea/coffee merchant does this Blue Sky tea which might work for you.

              I also enjoy the spicy and astringent flavours of Chinese and Taiwanese teas, but for some reason I happen to buy more Japanese tea. Even though I sometimes feel they like to keep their best teas to themselves :).

                        Also calling @seashift as he (or more likely Nadia) may have something to contribute here.

                        @ARNC Ha, she is definitely more versed than I am in this, but I have had the pleasure of dabbling in the dark arts of the whites, greens, various needles of silver and Pu'er. But, being a man of simple tastes, this has been my daily driver recently:

                          I have always been a coffee drinker enjoying both the coffee but also the ceremony. Unfortunately, massive amounts of caffeine don’t agree with me lately so I have been drinking more and more tea. So glad this thread is here, will get some pics of my teas tomorrow!

                                Right now I'm having a nice kukicha (my favourite all day every day tea).

                                        I tried this'un today for the first time. Holy cow it's fun. Full bodied, smoke, bacon, countered by a "pine forest breeze"...
                                        It's ok, I'm allowed to talk this kind of nonsense. I've been not drinking for over two years now.
