I stumbled across a liquorice & fennel-flavoured tea at the supermarket which is very soothing and sweet. It's strange because usually with liquorice I'm a sucker for the ridiculously salty stuff (think salmiak).

Oh, I have forgotten to add: no brands, no bags, no flavor.

You left out the only really good one:
I might have to try this one! I hadn't heard of rice-based tea although I have tried Japanese saké rice-wine; it's a lethal liquid since it's so delicate that it lulls you into one hell of a false sense of security... then bam! Hangover.Ygggdrasil said:

I like the toasty flavor that the roasted rice adds to the tea. Another favorite (along the same lines) is hojicha, in which the tea leaves themselves are roasted.ergospherical said:I might have to try this one!
