Any ideas from real tea mavens out there? Maybe my taste buds are just getting too old.
Needless to say I am talking about plain tea, not anything flavored.

Try hotter water or steeping longer if you want a richer flavor! Another one you might try for fun is Celestial Seasonings Roastaroma Mocha Spice (also non-caffeinated).

Mentioning loose leaf tea reminds me of my little French gramma from Canada. When she would come down to the US to visit my mom would make sure there was loose tea to fix for gramma. My three brothers and I could drink a small cup of tea with gramma. After our cups were empty, gramma read our tea leaves. Wounderful things were going to happen to all of us. We always got good readings from gramma. LOL
