List of Teas and Tea types? Eg. Darjeeling, Earl Grey.?!

Best Answer - Chosen by Voters

Do you mean that you are looking for a list of black tea types, as all that you have listed are black teas, but I personally wouldn't call those types of teas, but rather one type of tea. To continue your list I would add orange pekoe, irish breakfast tea, lady grey tea (one of my favourites), and English breakfast.

You have lucked out! I actually maintain a website with a lot of information on this topic, although it's not strictly in list format.

For black teas:

Black teas are classified both by style and by region. The major region-based teas are Assam, Darjeeling, Ceylon, Keemun. The major black flavored tea is Earl Grey. For green teas, the major flavored tea is Jasmine.

It's hard to give a totally exhaustive list. You may want to also look at Oolong Teas and White Tea. This page explains the difference: http://ratetea.net/style/tea-camellia-si…

I hope this is helpful.

If you want a really quick answer though? The classic Afternoon tea, in my opinion, is Darjeeling: http://ratetea.net/style/darjeeling-blac… -- the other black teas tend to be a bit stronger and heavier. Darjeeling is most popular for afternoon tea because it is lighter among black teas.
