From PG Tips

“Do your bit, put the kettle on.”
One of the best English teas. Gives Tetley a run for its money. Pyramid tea bags and the quintessential English breakfast tea taste. Cheers.

First morning in Italy, I woke up to this. Very nice, but simple black bend. Composed of Assam, Ceylon, and Kenyan (similar to Twining’s English Breakfast, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3vpqffdeetI), this tea has a distinct flowery, toffee flavor. My guest this morning was going to brew the pyramid bags, but then was slightly concerned that I, as the host of Tea Time Tuesday, would be slightly offended, so he brewed loose tea, contrary to the picture here. I enjoyed it thoroughly. It’s important to note that this is essentially Britain’s version of Lipton, but not quite the lowest quality of standard orange pekoe.

Preparation: 5 minutes at 205 F.
Rating: 87% (4 1/3rd of 5 tea leaves)

Bog-standard daily beverage – add milk & inhale in one breath.

Great with a little milk, a little sugar.
