BritManToo Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 I use these, each bag good for 3 or 4 mugs of tea, 80 bags last me 3 months. I've got a 6 month supply in the cupboard. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

worgeordie Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 I doubt you will see anymore Tesco tea here, as Tesco/Lotus has been sold to CP, and I don't think Tesco Products will be a high priority for CP. there is M&S tea,if you have an M&S shop in a nearby mall. regards Worgeordie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although they never have them in stock, so order 4 packets at a time online which bumps up the price a bit. Already on my second mug this morning ........ bloody ants!

Yes, there was version of this which was rated 1, 2 or 3 in degrees of strength, but have been unable to find it lately. One tea bag per cup suits fine.

jadee Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 I don't know if Central malls are currently open, but if there's one near you, you may find a Marks and Spencers - they have some good own-brand tea. Another option are some Tops stores - for some weird reason they sell Waitrose own-brand tea. You can order online and get it delivered https://www.tops.co.th/en/search/Waitrose tea 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crossy Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 I've just run out of my imported Tetleys, the next delivery was due last weekend but with the current travel situation it's still sitting in the UK with the family (grandkids) who were bringing it. I quite like the Dilmah 100% Ceylon but cheap it is not ???? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saltire Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 I am no where near a Tesco or M&S and I have never liked coffee, always a tea drinker. I resorted to mail order and got a whole bunch of different teas on iHerb.com (STASH Brand). I have enough variety to last me a few more months. 2 teapots, 1 bag every morning. They do a nice Earl Grey. Unfortunately not taking orders right now as shipping has been compromised. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Lipton basic tea mask-bag) Liptons is not tea, maybe OK for Ice tea,if you tried to make a cup of tea with it ,leave it in for an hour ,it would still be like Gnats p*ss. regards worgeordie 6 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surelynot Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 Lipton's Yellow breakfast tea. Think the key is to use bottled water though, not tap water. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scubascuba3 Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 The Lipton English Breakfast (Grey box) is better than Lipton yellow label but neither compare to Tetley so i need to find a new source, I'll check Tesco's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moogradod Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 Best tea I ever tried was Twinings "Prince of Wales". It seems to be discontinued though which I think is rather strange. For current best performance/price ratio try Tesco finest "Assam" or English Breakfast". No need for the expensive imported brands IMHO. PG did not live up to the reputation. I have seen Tetley somewhere (quite probably at Siamburi's Pattaya). I have tea nearly every afternoon using my 95 year old porcellain. Gives me some kind of a very well needed rest.

phantomfiddler Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 The very best tea I ever found was "Barrys", apparently from Ireland but I never knew they drank anything other than Guinness ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightSky Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 (edited) For a proper brew... I still have months worth of the best Yorkshire tea from my previous visit to the UK.. Edited April 9, 2020 by NightSky 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allanos Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 As a coffee drinker, "decent cuppa tea" sounds like an oxymoron to me ???? That said, I drink a mug of Tetley's green tea every day, usually peppermint flavoured. It's not particularly satisfying but gives me a break from all of the coffee I drink. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
