The London Cuppa from The London Cuppa
92

This is a blend of Assam and Kenyan teas which come in a round tea bag, but don’t let this fool you into believing that they will taste like Tetley’s (no offence to the Tetley drinkers, I once heavily enjoyed their green tea!). This tea really surprised me. When I drank the Yorkshire Tea from ToH, I remember saying that it was the smoothest I have drank. Well London Cuppa resepctfully disagrees with that statement. Not only is it velvety, it is also slightly creamier than other teas I have drank. I have to try it without sugar next time, but I think I’m sensing some notes of honey, and that might be part of what makes this tea so full bodied and rich in texture. Also it has less of that wood/straw characteristic that the Yorkshire Tea has, but has a slight touch of briskness to it.

This is just about the only tea my middle daughter will drink and she has a pot every school day while she does her Algebra lesson. We used to be able to find it loose leaf, but haven’t seen it that way in a long time.

ashmanra//I can understand why she would not feel the need for any other tea, because this one is so good! I have seen it in loose leaf form where I purchased mine, but I just got the tea bags because I imagined there wouldn’t be a noticable difference.
