Edit: so it turns out that every hobby can be expensive if you do it long enough.

Also I love how you talk about your hobby as some addicts.

Same with tea...Once you get to loose tea , the step to importing tea is not very far.
Oh the import tax and shipping :(

Fortunately here are few shops that import themselves.

But you reminded me that I need new kettle to my new house.

My pleasure. Don't foget to buy more tea than you have storage.
Just get more storage.

Yup! Used to drink cheap black tea, went to the UK and bought Yorkshire gold. Ain't no way I'm going back to the cheap stuff.
