What you are describing is fairly easy to get, at least in Europe, e.g. from https://www.whittard.com/tea/tea-type/green-tea/dragon-well-loose-tea-MSTR334425.ht

- tw1984 2y agocome on, $26 per 50g. it is like someone trying to sell you the full ownership of OpenAI for $1 billion USD in H1 2025.
- semi-extrinsic 2y agoYeah, they are the poshest tea shop in London, of course they're expensive. If you know of a more affordable place with shipping and high quality, I'm all ears.
- blacklion 2y agoIt is THE problem for me: tea become "posh" in Europe. You have tea dust from Lipton in bags on one end of the spectrum, posh tea which costs about 100x to its origin (26€/$ per 50g! 520€ for a kilo! It is insane, it is lifestyle price, not food/grocery price!) on the other end of the spectrum and nothing in-between. Ok, Germany or Netherlands never were known for tea tradition, but UK was THE Tea country. UK created Assam, Darjeeling, Ceylon teas in the first place! How did this happen?
