Living in the EU I used to get tea from the tea makers of London and was pretty happy with it.

Ever since brexit however, ordering stuff from the UK has become a painand so I’ve been trying different online shops (and also the stuff one finds on amazon), but none seems to have good enough quality without being too overpriced.

So… do you have any tips on where to buy tea?

    Depends on the tea.

    I’m in the UK and if shopping outwith I tend to just buy from China, Japan, India or wherever I want tea from.

    Yunnan Sourcing is good value and pretty reliable for Chinese tea.

    O-Cha or Ippodo for Japanese tea.

    TeaSpring in the US offer most stuff in small sizes and have a flat $3.80 worldwide shipping charge.

    I’ve heard good things about Marriage Freres but have never tried them.

    Essense of Tea or Liquid Proust may be worth a look if you like that sort of thing.
