I know this isn't coffee, but I figured this would be a good place to start with this question.
I am looking for good online retailers to buy whole leaf teas and tea accessories. Anyone have one the frequent? Thanks for any suggestions! -Tyler |

I found a great tea shop in the Venitian Mall in Qatar. The saleswomen were very attractive and playful. I know it may be a bit of a trip to get there, just trhowing it out there.

Mostly Chinese tea ... shop is in China but their service is quite good. I've purchased from them many times.
http://www.jingteashop.com/ Also: http://www.thefragrantleaf.com/ http://www.sevencups.com/ http://www.holymtn.com/ I prefer Jing because you are closer to the source, but have purchased from all of these guys multiple times.

http://www.teasource.com/ is another great place. They are my local tea shop, my B&M so to speak and I love their teas. I don't have much experience with other retailers but I have always enjoyed what I've gotten from them and they have always treated me right.

Even though I have never ordered from them, this is my new favorite tea company.
http://www.portsmouthtea.com/Main.php I just found out they donated 70 lbs of tea to the Tax Day Tea Party. ![]() |

I'll second Teavana. Ridiculously expensive but oh so delicious.

A hearty second for Special Teas. Of the 3 or 4 online retailers I've purchased from, they've had about the best quality, consistently.

Depends largely on what you want. Special teas is nice for decent tea. as is Adagio.
If you want to go more high end, http://funalliance.com/ is a nice start. My favorite of all times is http://www.jingteashop.com/default.cfm (Great tea, enthusiast level, direct from china). Also, Scott at Yunnan Sourcing if you get into pu-erh like me http://stores.shop.ebay.com/Yunnan-S...__W0QQ_armrsZ1 |
