Oh,. I drink mainly tea, but tea made from the leaf of the tea-plant, not infusions of other plants that are not tea.
I have tried one or two of those beverages, but didn't like them very much. Camomile "tea" made me think of grass cuttings, but that's probably my mind making an illogical link to the novel, The Camomile Lawn!
Black tea, to me, has always meant the same as black coffee - served simply without milk. I can drink it like that but prefer it white.
Brands? I normally buy the regular ones like Typhoo or Yorkshire, occasionally but more expensively Clipper, which is made in my part of the country. In the kitchen at the moment is Knightsbridge's 'Red Label', described on the carton as a blend of four different varieties from Asia and Africa.
I understand there is a small tea farm in Cornwall, in the furthest South-West of England, but I have not encountered its tea. Tea won't normally grow in England, but that region tends to have slightly milder weather than elsewhere.
I'm a bit lazy and anyway only want one mug-full at a time so usually use tea-bags and infuse them in the mug! The idea that tea-bag tea is always and only low-grade stuff is an old myth.
