So here's what I bought, all still from Adagio:
  1. ceylon sonata -- a black 'base' tea
  2. masala chai -- gotta have spice, best with a little milk & sugar
  3. jasmine oolong -- after-lunch pick-me-up
  4. peppermint -- when I'm already jittery, or to add to black teas
  5. honeybush orange -- ditto
I still have samples of Earl Grey and three other black teas. And some gawdawful blend with chamomile (ugh! can't stand chamomile!) that I am about to throw away. The Earl Grey is so strong I can add just a pinch to other teas and get all the bergamot I could want. This sample tin will last a lifetime!
I've also started a wishlist of all the really expensive teas I won't be buying for myself.
