Neither: oolong

Best of both worlds, slightly oxidized so blackish but still has fresh herbal and floral notes like green. You can even mix some oolongs with milk and get a nice creamy but still flavorful drink (like black) that doesn't taste watered down (like green)

Whatever you're pouring I'm drinking friend.

Bad green tea > bad black tea

Good black tea > good green tea

Tea, Earl Grey, Hot

Green tea or black tea?

Yerba Mate.

Oolong and your false dichotomy is proof that you're not a tea snob and thus not a real human being.

I mostly drink iced tea which I’m pretty sure is black tea.

whatever the fuck yorkshire tea is is good tea

Pu'er is kinda what I've been into lately but Chinese white tea is also pretty damn good. Also genmaicha (brown rice green tea) has always been a favorite.

I used to drink a lot of green tea but now my favorite is Oolong. My grocery store caries Ito En and it's the brand I go to.

Black tea in the morning, green tea after noon

Lemon honey black tea and ice

Yes

I prefer Moroccan mint tea, but i always end up getting turkish black tea when i'm in town.

Yes

Gun to my head, I'd have to say green. I grew up mostly drinking black tea with milk (now I use oat milk) and I don't really like its flavour on its own, it's too bitter. I can have it long with lemon, but yeah even then.

Fave green teas are houjicha (boucha), 兰贵人 languiren ginseng oolong, jasmine green and pu'er.

Houjicha (boucha) is so smooth and comforting, it's unreal. There are a few they sell near me and the boucha variety is the best, it's the roasted stem, not the leaf, and it has this smoky sweet flavour.

Languiren is a flavoured oolong packed tightly into little pebbles that look like rabbit shit, that then unfurl in the cup into whole leaves. It's a biting, syrupy flavour.

Jasmine green is a staple, I have a French press in the fridge with some super cheap stuff in there, but it hits the spot damned near every time.

Pu'er is a world of its own and can get spendy, but the roundness of the mouth feel and the earthy tannins approach something like what you get from a good espresso, and is probably my wankiest tea I have at the moment.

Honourable mention to longjing and biluochun but they're a bit to vegetal for me to be a go-to.

they are the same plant

I prefer black tea if I'm eating something at the same time, but otherwise it's pretty much 50/50

One of life's greatest pleasures is having pu'er made traditionally. Gongfu cha style.

I prefer the effects of green tea. I'm sensitive to caffeine, but do great with the L-theanine from green tea. I'll usually do Oolong for flavor nowadays though.

Green. Don't like th taste of black tea

Green tea, although my absolute favorite kind is Oolong.

Black tea I usually cannot have without oat milk

Both are nice

The best green tea is better than the best black tea, but the worst black tea is better than the worst green tea. Given I work in coffee, I'll take a dang solid matcha in-house than I'll take our also solid earl grey.

I actually like pg tipps the most. I have no taste, I know.

if green tea, jasmine. if black, early grey or chai. also quite partial to matcha.

depends on how sleepy i am 😤 😤 😤 😤 😤 😤 😤

If you like tea you're an honorary member of the British aristocracy and an imperial subject of the corpse king, therefore have your opinion on the question null and voided for being royalist scum

White

Green tea is at the top of the list, then herbals then black. However lapsang souchong, a smoked black tea, it's my all time favorite.

Pu-erh and oolong are goated.

I love white tea. I also love pu'er. Tea is just really good.

I like that Green Tea has a seaweed flavor, hard to beat Sencha
