Tetley Tea Bag

Black Tea by Tetley

2000 perforations let the flavor flood out.

The tea in Canada and the UK is not the same as the tea offered in the USA. The Canadian consumer has a different tea palate than the US consumer, and our tea reflects the choice of the Americans. Our British Blend tea is the closest blend to what is enjoyed in Canada and the UK. It comes in a round, stringless tea bag with a special paper that allows for fuller infusion, but it is not an identical blend to the Canadian/UK blends.

Our Classic Blends, British Blends, Green Blends and Iced Tea Blends, regular and decaf, have been manufactured in Georgia for over 50 years. The canisters and drawstring teas are manufactured in the UK by our parent company, The Tetley Group.

None of our Black tea blends contain any tea from China. These teas are sourced from many different countries, including Kenya, Malawi, Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, India, Vietnam, Argentina, Papua New Guinea and Indonesia. Our Green and White tea blends contain tea sourced from China, and we have an extensive testing and tasting regime to ensure they meet our very high quality and safety standards.

Sometimes you just have to have a ‘regular’ cuppa!

A good standard tea with no fuss about it, good for a quick drink at home or at work.

Bog-standard tea, without the… well… bog.

Weak. I needed to put three bags in to make it taste like tea.

A nice everyday-no-fuss tea. I usually dring this at work. The water is quite bad here but this tea takes even that and still tastes ok.

Whether it’s iced or warm, with milk and/or sugar, it’s perfect. It’s a very basic-tasting tea that goes well either by itself or with any meal.

It’s standard, but it’s what they have at work and it’s one of the better of the mainstream black teas in my opinion. Not great with the UHT milk they also have at work…

This is my ‘normal’ tea for home at the moment. I’m often not the person who is drinking it though, because I often make it for my housemate while I make myself something more interesting. He invariably compliments me on how good it is and asks me what it is (he’s very good at showing an interest in my tea obsession). I can’t say it’s wonderful, but it does the job it’s supposed to, and it does it pretty well

I had to drink this all day at work today and I’m sick of it! We only had horrible UHT milk. You get hot water from a machine that only fills the cup just over half so you have to find a solution like getting a partner to join you. Then you can press the button to fill your cup, press it again and then transfer the second half of the water into the next cup so that both cups get 1 1/2 servings each. It wasn’t worth the effort, urgh
