I say that green is for foreigners and black tea is for gentlemen.

Definitely black tea. Somehow it feels more versatile to me, not sure why that should matter but it does, haha!

I mostly drink iced tea, and iced green tea is kind of weird.

Have you tried it with Chinese Gyokuro?^^ Or even “real”(Japanese) Gyokuro ;)

Hmm, probably not. May be worth a shot, next time I get over to the Asian grocer.
It’s funny, I live in what one would probably call a small city, population around 90k. The Asian grocer is three miles away, but it’s still like, ughhhhhhhhhhhh I need to work up the energy to go.

Might actually be easier to find at a tea shop, an Asia market might only have sencha - “real” Gyokuro tends to be kind of expensive(and i don’t think you’d find Chinese Gyokuro at the Asia market because i think it’s made for the western market) XD

I started out only drinking black, though as I’ve spent more money on tea, getting higher quality, I’ve enjoyed the depth of fresher (greener) teas. I’d have to say green, but with the caveat that I enjoy drinking all types often.
