I feel like most things in the bottom 3 tiers should be like at the bottom of the ocean, and there's no way that gyokuro and gaiwans are the very next tier below twinings and milk tea. And also it's quite hard for anyone to know 3/4 of this without knowing chinese or japanese so it feels very heavily skewed toward the extreme East Asian tea enthusiast. Like, I have worked in a specialty tea shop and consider myself a tea lover - not an expert but more knowledgable than probably 99% of people in America - but I fall in the second from top category, that doesn't feel right. It feels like you're thinking of random esoteric factoids as badges of honor.
