Tea Bags Or Loose Tea + Infusor

[cm-happy]

are tea bags preferable, taste wise to loose tea and an infusor.

What do you think?

Also, I love Lapsang Souchong tea and cannot find( not even at Rimping) in Chiang Mai.

Is there another name for it?

I was looking for the same chinese tea and after a bit of research i find out that got several other names : "Zheng Shan Xiao Zhong" and "Russian Caravan", this last name because of the long journeys this black tea(but classified as a red tea in China) was taking from homeland China to Moscow in Russia

everyone puts down Lipton's Yellow Label but I started using Yellow Label loose tea in saudi inna 'tea ball' and was amazed at the improvement over the tea bags...dunno if it's available in Thailand though...

Nothing wrong with Lipton's yellow label. It's my preferred teabag tea.

My Mrs keeps me on a steady diet of Oolong tea with ginseng.

A few hotels have Lapsang Souchon at there tea card.

For home use look at jingtea.com and just order it.

In Bangkok you have sabaidi tea company, not sure they have it, sabaidi.net.
