As I sit here, 3000 miles away, I read of new teas and wonder, what level of deliciousness are awaiting me?
Black needle? Now that my beloved Fancy Golden has left, could this be my replacement? Is it smooth, earthy, and delicious without an after taste?
High Mountain? How high does it go? Is it milky like...milk? Is it sweet like passion fruit? Does it re-steep well?
Darjeeling oolong! WHAT THE?!!1?!?omg?!?
Fruity chamomile white, are you delicious when iced? Light and refreshing like I imagine?
I won't touch the new herbal, as I am scared.
There are my questions and I am dying of curiosity! Help me fellow tea fiends, help me!

Now, it's only my opinion, but for what it's worth...
Black needle yunnan: if you want coffee, just drink coffee. It, unfortunately, is not likely to be your replacement. Continue to hoard what you've got left of the Fancy golden... There's also a new other yunnan... I forget the name, but it's better than the black needle.
High Mountain: a really lovely oolong, greener. Some folks say they like it better than green dragon, but I disagree. It's close, but not quite there. I'm planning on giving it another shot today, though. It does resteep really well.
Darjeeling oolong: OMG indeed. It tastes like a darjeeling. A little lighter, but just as astringent and... well, it's not my favorite, I'll put it that way.
Fruity white: I haven't tried it iced... I'm not a huge fan of the whites to begin with. It's basically peony with a little chamomile and the tiniest whisper of pom. I mostly taste the chamomile.
New herbal: actually really delicious. I think you may, in fact, enjoy it. I know Red will. It is closest to Popped, but not the toastiness, just the richness. Leave your mind open to it - it's pretty swell.
I'm sure there are some disagreements around the counter - let's hear them!
Anyone else having problems logging in?
