I recently bought myself a little Japanese cast-iron teapot (tetsubin) with a mesh strainer. I want to brew loose-leaf tea in it. Do you know a source for good loose-leaf tea on the web? What brands do you especially like?

I especially like strong black tea that can stand up to milk, and toasted rice tea.

I buy a lot of Ahmad Tea Company tea from online sellers. Amazon is a reliable source for it, but you can find it from other retailers sometimes at lower prices.

I usually drink their Kalami Assam tea, but that might not be as strong as you like. My daughter Amanda likes strong black tea and she likes their Ceylon OPA tea. You can find it using Google marketplace, as well as at Amazon.
