What are some good, lower end tea brands? (beehaw.org)

Located in the us and seeking recommendations. All the brands I could think of are too expensive these days (i buy a lot of tea), but I can abide the aldi brand no longer.

Edit: I mean teabags for hot teas, things like English breakfast, earl grey, spiced chai, etc. In search of decent quality that isn’t watery or stale tasting, but nothing too special.

If PFAS (‘forever chemicals’) is something that worries you, apparently that shit is also in a lot of teabags for some ungodly reason.

For some reason we need triangular tea bags nowadays, which are, of course, made from plastics

Soooo many microplastics leach from tea bags. I dunno, don't do it OP... I strongly suggest loose leaf in a tin.
