Loose blacks from Java or Vietnam. Upton Tea Importers carries them (As well as a staggering array of every other kind you can imagine).

Tea always without milk or sugar.
Orange Pekoe
Earl Grey
Lapsang Suchong (the "Islay malt" of tea)
Japanese green tea (not the tea ceremony green tea - too bitter)
Chrysanthemum tea (the Chinese version with the flower head stuffed in it).

I wake up to Barry's Irish Breakfast, followed by Scottish Breakfast for morning tea near where I work. Earl Gray at noon, and Brittish Tea Time for afternoon tea. Late tea usually is served with Lyons Gold.
All without any additives.
I love coffee and used to consume quantities of which Steve Ashton could not come close. After a digestive system malfunction, the Doctor has recommended only tea for me.

I was lucky to find uptontea.com here in Massachusetts. I get a box of different teas from them several times a year and drink it all day long. I like Assam teas - ctc, ftgop. Also a China black gunpowder and pu urh. There is a nice black Kenya ftgop. Tetley English Blend in the round bags finally is in the markets here. Closest thing to Canadian Tetley. Great flavorful stuff. I do recomment Upton highly.
Because of huge intakes and heartburn I have begun de-caffinating it myself using the procedure in their catalog.
MERRY CHRISTMAS to all and please do stop round for a cuppa.
