Rigsby Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 My source of Tetley teabags in Pattaya has dried up. Other posts re. this subject are old now, so I decided to add this new one. Friendship sell PG Tips now - but very expensive. Anyone know of a source of Tetley (or other) english teabags ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NanLaew Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 Relying on local suppliers is invariably going to be expensive and unreliable. I have a couple of mates frequently inbound from the UK and between the 3 of us, we keep ourselves stocked with Nambarrie, Tetleys, PG Tips and the other necessities of expat life. That way we avoid the Branston Pickle pricing mafia, have Rose's Lime marmalade on the table and an endless supply of McVities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hullmonkey1 Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 I can get hold of tetley T-bags from the local village store here in Kashmir. They are the square type with a string and tab but taste the same as the UK variety (unless I have been here too long). They work out at about a quid for a box of 80. Would be happy to bring you a couple of boxes over. I am home this saturday. I live out near the crock farm but will be in patts most days Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will pop into the village tomorrow and buy whatever tetly's T-bags they have in stock. If they have plenty I can stick them into the spare hold-all I use for taking stuff back with me. Will post the result of my little shopping trip tomorrow. I dont need many as I only get 17 days leave for every 13 weeks worked so will be more than happy to hand them over.

toptuan Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 Is 180Baht for a 25-bag box of Twinings a reasonable price? (Tesco-Lotus). From uncouth American, TT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plasticpig Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 I find the Liptons Yellow Label teabags you can get just about anywhere in Pattaya quite satisfactory Liptons is poor value, you need two bags or more for one cup of good hot tea. But is great as a cold drink. if you feel the need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astromash Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 Liptons is poor value, you need two bags or more for one cup of good hot tea. I find one bag for a MUG of tea sufficient - and I like my tea quite strong. At 25 bags for around 50 baht this is good value for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plasticpig Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 Only one bag. How long do you keep it in the cup 4 hours and then reheat it in the Microwave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
