@sfnative  I am considering getting one of those silicone Tea Infusers sold on Amazon. Some of them are so cute. What do you think of them?  I haven't tried whole leaf or loose tea. Right now I am drinking Decaf Green tea, Bewley's Irish Breakfast tea and Red Rose, all tea bags. I haven't been able to buy white tea, which is my favorite. No one has it here.  Thank you for any info.

My daughter has a silicone infuser and enjoys using it.  I take her word for it, as I haven't had any experience with them.  Regarding the white tea, I've purchased it at World Market/Cost Plus when making Christmas baskets, but don't know if that store is in your area.  If it's not, but make a once a year trip to a major city for, say, Christmas shopping and can get to a World Market, I'd make purchases there.  Don't get me wrong, they're not the best, but they have the basics and they're in bags, mostly, not loose leaf.

 

I mentioned Upton Tea in my post.  If you want to try some of their teas, you can purchase samples or 125 gram packets of tea and it won't cost a lot.  There will be shipping, of course.

 

Though not an entity I'd usually go to for tea, you can always try Amazon to see what's available, as they have many suppliers.

 

Hope you're successful in bringing some white tea into your life, as well as a nifty infuser.  XXX
