Note that the stash doesn't include teabag tea. We have some of that too, kept on a different shelf, and getting that out for a photo would be too much like hard work.
I discovered somewhere that sold the tea i drink regularly (Twinings Assam) as loose leaf tea - and it was £1.15 for the leaf tea (when the same weight in tea bags is £2.30 or something)!
yay! another tea addict! our tea cupboard looked like this (http://www.flickr.com/photos/nixwilliams/1430422104/) almost a year ago... it's even more packed now. i think i feel some organising coming on!
Dammit, does this mean I have to photograph my stash?
It be not as impressive as yours though. :(
Oh, and I have a suitably big teapot now — no more using the 1.5L caffetiere to make large volumes of tea. However, I'll need to get a bigger kettle to fill it properly.
Your tea collection ma'am is made of very serious win.
My collection alas stops at around a dozen different varieties. I may now be forced to take it upon myself to do something about this, and invest in some of Mr Whittard's finest (considering I'm working around the corner from there).
Mr Whittard does maintain a pretty good collection. Might I recommend the mango indica blend? A pleasant black tea with the addition on mango flowers and a little dessicated mango- it's just sooooo refreshing! It's fab chilled with a little ice too!
At which point she heads off to put t'kettle on :o)
I think it's hilarious that your shoulders are behind your waist/legs in order to support the tall stack! I also like the skirt! Since i'm American, i don't normally drink tea, but i do appreciate a good coffee! ;)

What's the one up from the bottom? Is that lapsang? If not, why no lapsang?
