"I don't think loose tea or tea-bags actually makes too much difference."

*smile*...well, a couple of times...years ago...I won bets that I could identify one tea-bag cup in a row of loose tea cups. They 'tend' to use lower grades of tea for bags, but I could also identify the slight paper flavor...I think.

**Of course, I did NOT put milk in it.** IF one uses milk, almost all differences disappear.
