What's your favorite tea or herbal infusion?

I just discovered this and it's awesome.

I know this one for longer and it's delicious too.

I bought myself Basilur since I only had Ahmad Green tea with mint only as a part of a selection box and couldn't find it as a separate box. Big disappointment. Basilur is nowhere as good despite that it's loose leaf tea. It's super astringent, mint tastes sort of overgrown and old, definitely not as leaves picked while still fresh.

Ahmad > Basilur

actual tea (Camellia sinensis):
- pu-ehr tea (unique category)
- Darjeeling (black)
- oolong tea
- gunpowder green tea (loose leaf)
- black or green tea with spearmint (including Maghrebi mint tea) (don't like peppermint)
- white or green tea with dried jasmine flowers
- Earl Grey tea (black)
- masala chai (black)
- any "breakfast" tea (black; "English" or "Irish" variants)

I can't recall if I've ever had Assam tea, or matcha; I never knew any of the brands of loose leaf teas I got or of the dried jasmine flowers when I had to make jasmine tea from loose leaf tea; otherwise the only brands I've used for prepackaged tea and tisane bags are Twinings and Bigelow

tisanes:
- chamomile
- hibiscus with rose hips
- spearmint, lemongrass and lemon verbena

I still want to try the blue pea flower tisane
