I got me a nice (dishwasher-safe) stoneware teapot, and a tea strainer ball thingy.

The cold season is coming and I'm looking for a new evening habit of drinking a gallon of afternoon tea (instead of drinking a gallon of Cola...)

Anyone got any recommendations on this front?

Puer is delicious, strongly flavourful, can't really be oversteeped and has a wide flavour range.

Someone else already mentioned alishan oolong - any high mountain taiwanese oolong is a good choice. Tie guan yin (tyeh gwan yin - iron goddess of mercy) is another popular oolong.
