I was wondering if any of you guys knew where a good place to buy tea online is. Loose or bagged, I don't care. Amazon is kind of pricy, and I know there is better tea out there than the major brands. The best tea I ever had was brought back by my mother when she visted China. It was so good I horded it, instead of brewing it, and it got moldy (when I horde I horde).

What kind of tea do you drink?
My uncle is from Iraq and everytime he visits his family there he brings me a pack of rough black tea shipped from Ceylon.
I've Googled a bit and this (http://www.mightyleafteas.co.uk/category/8/loose-tea) is the best site I could find.
I strongly recommend to order loose tea, and if this site is no good, search for some Sri langkian tea distributor for Ceylon tea (main distributors of tea).
Oh, and put the dried tea leaves in a tupperware box/tin cookie box/anything that keeps it dry.

Those prices are a bit on the high side and I'd like to avoid international shipping costs. I live in the US.
I'm mostly looking for green tea. There are places in town to by respectable, if not good, black tea, but no one here sells just green tea. Its green tea plus some funky flavor that I assume is added to make it more appealing to Americans.
