What color countertop ?

Crestview, FL(Zone 8a)

Hi all ... I have finished repainting our kitchen cabinets have replaced most of the appliances to stainless steel. I am now looking into getting the counter top replaced with granite and with so many choices out there it is hard to decide. I have been to 3 stores and so far all three have recommended either the Uba Tuba or the Verde Butterfly which have both the greenish black tinge to it. I wonder why??? is it because it is cheaper of all granites and they probably make their most money on it? ;-)

It is hard to make a decision when all you see is a 4x4 piece sample of the stone . I cant get a bigger picture of what and how it would look like in my very small kitchen. I have searched the internet and it seems it will look good on a white cabinet but my kitchen doesnt get the natural light so only artificial lighting is available.

I was leaning towards a beige/tan color but wasn't sure about that either. I have SW Bamboo shoot ( green) wall color and the base board and door trims are all in brown color. I would appreciate any input any one can give me. I am going today to go and look at another store and see what they have .

here is my newly painted cabinet - with the old appliances.
