I don't really remember the name but its a very popular Asian tea brand. Its in a green with gold/yellow designs, rectangular box thats labeled "103". My parents/family seem to drink that alot. Its always stocked in the kitchen cabinets.

Since you're in Orange County, the availability of hard-to-find Asian food/drinks should be plenty. Most of the tea I drink don't have English brand names, but Tien Ren is pretty chills for good tea. You can get them at boba places like Cha 4 Tea, Tea Station, Tien Ren (duh).

PG Tips...an English brand.

It is an everyday, basic black tea...think Liptons...but I really enjoy it. I used to have it shipped to me but it is becoming available in better supermarkets. Check your international food aisle.
