I enjoyed the Jasmine tea and the white tea, which tasted like incense smells. The green tea tasted like spinach and the oolong didnt taste like much. The fermented tea tasted like cut grass. The Cardamom Ceylon black tea didnt have a strong flavor at first but with sweetener, the cardamom really pops. I had hoped that I would like tea unsweetened so that I would have a healthy beverage but it is either no strong enough, bitter, or tastes like plant. To be fair, only the cheap store brand tea has been bitter. Any suggestions for teas to try that are more on the fruity, nutty, floral, or spice side?

Try gunpowder or long jing (dragon well) tea.

What I really liked were
Premium Grade Dragon Well Tea from Zhejiang Long Jing Tea from YunnanSourcing
Gunpowder from my local tea shop (+ self grown mint for a sort of Moroccan mint tea)
