Wirianto , that's

. A dedicated tea lover going by your description. If you can describe the aroma of the mystery tea we'll see whether we can track it for you. -pine, smoky, exotic woody, slightly nutty , balsamic ...? Colour of brew may help.
I like this description of Keemun tea , from Keemun region in China.
"A scent more awakening than coffee, without the heavy bitter taste and nasty shock to the stomach that coffee can have. Perfect tea for cream and sugar, with a rich flavour almost as smoky as a Lapsang Souchong. Highly recommended for coffee drinkers and black tea lovers alike."
And guess what - English Breakfast Tea
IS Black Keemun Tea.
Also discovered Tazo Earl Grey blended with Tazo bergamot.
Discover Tea I really like the TAZO TCHAI at Starbucks. Must find out if it's spiced Tazo Earl Grey.
Health benefits of tea drinking include :
� Cancer Prevention - The American Association for Cancer Research found that tea drinkers were half as likely to develop certain cancers than non-tea drinkers.
� Bone Health - as reported by the Archives of Internal Medicine, tea drinkers were found to have higher bone-density measurements.
� Heart Health - a Harvard study shows that tea drinkers had a significantly lower risk of fatal heart attacks than non-tea drinkers.
� Oral Health - with its natural fluoride, flavonoids and vitamin C, tea inhibits the plaque-forming ability of oral bacteria.
� Arterial Health - Boston University researchers found that blood vessel function improves with drinking tea and seemed to reverse the progression of atherosclerosis.
� Skin Health - by applying tea to sunburned skin, its polyphenols will reduce sun damage associated with wrinkling and cancer.
� Overall Health - Brewed tea contains antioxidant polyphenols that neutralize free radicals which help protect against chronic disease.
If you are concerned about caffeine, consider that on average, tea contains approximately 1/3 to 1/2 less caffeine per serving as coffee. The average tea drinker consumes about 80 mg of caffeine per day as compared to the average coffee drinker's 220 mg. These approximations are an easy way to remember:
black tea contains about half as much caffeine as coffee
oolong tea contains about half as much caffeine as black tea
green tea contains about half as much caffeine as oolong tea
And the longer the infusion the greater the caffeine content. Tea bags, which contain broken leaves, produce an infusion with far more caffeine than loose leaf tea.
For those who are caffeine sensitive, consider red tea or Rooibos, a completely caffeine-free herb tea from South Africa. Rooibos (roy-bus) is the only other herb in the world which undergoes a fermentation process like black tea. Studies show that rooibos contains comparable amounts of polyphenols to green tea and has a soothing effect on headaches, disturbed sleep
patterns and digestive problems. A great "tea alternative".
