There’s just not as many tea lovers here in the U.S. I think. I got one a couple of months ago though (I am a tea lover). Game changer.
The lack of tea lovers in the US is definitely the issue. Most grocery stores have disgusting low quality tea so most Americans don't like tea. I've been sending family high quality tea for years now and they love it but can't find anything remotely close locally.
I order loose online, but I’ve also found some bags that are quite good. Thompson’s Irish Breakfast is a personal favorite. Oh and I timed my kettle today; 1.5L takes 6:15 to boil.
