Sorry if I missed this somewhere in the last 33 pages, but is there a good place to get Japanese-style green teas (sentya, genmaitya, gyokuro, etc.)? I've ordered from Adagio since Dragonwater stopped selling most regular teas but man, I was in Kyoto and got some really good genmaitya and well... the stuff on Adagio is nothing like that.

I bought some of that stuff in San Francisco a couple years ago. It's almost like licorice.

ulvir posted:Good evening tea thread. I'm in the market for a proper teapot, but I'm kind of at a loss w/r/t all the options out there. I'm looking for something that's good to use interchangeably between types, everything from earl grey and herbal teas like spicy rooibos blends to green tea and hōjicha and so on. Now, I know that unglazed pots are bad for this since it will absorb the oils and tastes from steeping, so you'd want to have one pot for one specific tea, but other than that I'm at a complete loss. Should I get something with a filter/strainer or without? Would cast iron be best, or should I go with some fancy modern glass or stainless steel type thing? Or glazed ceramics/porcelain type teapot? I'm going to be honest here -- I can't tell the difference. I'd get one with a filter/strainer because otherwise it'll be a hassle to make tea with it.
