5: Hojicha. Hojicha has a smoky flavor that is roasted to a very smoky flavor. It's very robust and is great during the winter months.

4: Sencha. A japanese mainstay, sencha is mild and grassy and fit for any occasion.

3: Bi Luo. Bi luo is a chinese tea I first tried last year. It has the earthiness typically found in a chinese green tea, while still being mild.

2: Longjin. Longjin (aka dragon well) is my daily tea. It has a bold, grassy, earthy flavor without being too strong in caffeine. It's really good.

1: Gyokuro. Gyokuro is my absolute favorite tea. It's one of the strongest flavored non-roasted Japanese green teas I've had. It has a strong, grassy flavor which a good amount of sweetness. It's high in both theanine (which produces a relaxing effect) and caffeine for a green tea. The only reason it's not my daily tea is because it has too much caffeine for me, and can be fairly pricy.
