Oh and if you happen to know, does white tea come in tea bags?

There is a difference of taste. Most green teas have a distinctive 'grassy' taste to them but white tea does not. It is made from less mature leaves. The flavor is light, and sweet. It has less caffiene than most other teas, and more active cancer-fighting antioxidants.
White tea does come in tea bags( check supermarkets) or a catalog like *Stash Teas*

You don't like green tea, but want to drink white tea, Do you like black tea???
I think you are fixating on the craze to drink tea for health....It is not a magical elixer. It is just a drink, that is no better for you than
tommato juice, or grapefruit juice,and only slightly better than water.
Black tea has the most flavor and has many flavors, green tea is more delicate, because the leaves have not been fermented, but there are many flavors of green tea as well, The stuff commercially in the bags, I dont like either. "Kumman" from a specialty store is nice.
White tea I have never tried , but I suspect it is even more delicate in taste than green tea. Buy it and try it, see if you like it.
But if you don't like any tea try this
There are several flavored black teas on the market....these are not herbal teas, so these have any benefits you think you are getting with tea.
Read the label
Look for Blackberry flavor with black tea, or Black Current flavor with black tea. There is also a strawberry flavored black tea.
If you don't usually take sugar in you tea, you might want a little bit with these

Hi! I have a friend who drinks white tea often and, if I remember correctly, the last time we went to a tea room together, she was served white tea in tea bags in her little teapot. The place mainly served Twinings tea, so you might start your search there.
I don't know why, but I'm not fond of green tea hot (but drink it sometimes anyway [because it is so healthful with those antioxidants.]). However, I found a cold green tea that I do like and carry 1 in car on trips, as it is available in some convenience stores so is easy to replace--ARIZONA GREEN TEA. It has ginseng added, and, fortunately because I'm diabetic, also comes as a diet one, sweetened with Splenda, instead of the honey in the regular kind, but some may not care for any artificial sweeteners. I also saw that LIPTON has a bottled green tea on a tv commercial for the FOOD LION chain. However, it has artificial citrus flavors added. I hope that this is helpful.

White tea has a sweeter and lighter taste and yes you can get it in tea bags at the store.

The taste is quite different. It's expensive and as far as I know it does come in tea bags.

White tea doesn't taste like anything. Unless you mix it with fruit or something. And you can buy white tea bags in the grocery store, I bought mine at Publix.
