April 10, 200620 yr I have run out of my English tea that my friend brought to me. Anyone know where to buy English brands in BKK? Tetleys, PG Tips, whatever. Don't have at Tops or Villa Market.
April 10, 200620 yr If you are really desperate i am sure lampard at the farang connection in Surin sells English tea. Bit of a bloody trek mind for a cuppa
April 10, 200620 yr Get someone to send you some, as I do. My Son keeps me well supplied with Sainsbury's one cup

April 11, 200620 yr I have run out of my English tea that my friend brought to me. Anyone know where to buy English brands in BKK? Tetleys, PG Tips, whatever. Don't have at Tops or Villa Market. i have not seen those brands but there is definetaly english tea on sale in a tin (twinnings maybe?) available most places.
April 11, 200620 yr Most Tesco's sell Twinnings Breakfast and Earl Grey. Tops sell Sainsbury's own brand, but as far as I know we are the only place in Thailand that sells Tetleys and Yorkshire tea. And we are very short of that this month.
April 11, 200620 yr Tescos occasionally have their own brand darjeeling which is a great, light morning cuppa. Give it 3/4 minutes in the pot. Twinnings is available at many places in BKK and their Assam makes for a good afternoon brew but thats about it.

April 11, 200620 yr I was on my way! Got as far as Phimai when work called and asked me to start earlier than planned! I may make it up soon, and will head up with Daleyboy as well!

How about seeing if Starbucks can do anything for you? I think they do Twinings English Breakfast over the counter, but I don't know about to take away.
April 11, 200620 yr Theres also a little cafe at the bottom of the building where STA is in on Surawongse (Name escapes me but it may be the Wall Street Tower) which does a range of very nice teas (as well as very nice cakes and sandwiches)
April 11, 200620 yr I was on my way! Got as far as Phimai when work called and asked me to start earlier than planned! I may make it up soon, and will head up with Daleyboy as well! Yeah...........but where can I find Robinsons Barley Water?. Its not <deleted> barley water, just plain old apple and blackcurrant squash and make sure it isnt the sugar free stuff God these old people just dont listen sometimes Me and farty are going to invade your place so make sure you have plenty of breakfast goods
April 11, 200620 yr Tops carry a range of Waitrose (UK) products in varying amounts in most of their stores...I think it's an experiment so it may not last but they do have some good teas... very pricey though. Most of the other "English" teas are in fact produced in Malaysia or imported from Australia. Tops black tea is quite good. the rest tend to be a little pale and insipid for the British palette.

April 12, 200620 yr I have run out of my English tea that my friend brought to me. Anyone know where to buy English brands in BKK? Tetleys, PG Tips, whatever. Don't have at Tops or Villa Market. If you are in Pattaya anytime, there's someone who sells Tetleys catering packs - 440 teabags - for 500 baht. delivered. PM me if you want the phone no. As for Liptons - Yuk! got no taste. Twinnings breakfast tea is OK but it's expensive.
April 14, 200620 yr I bought some Lipton over in the Foodland. Isn't this the best tea in the world? I think it's the same stuff we dumped into the harbor at Boston
April 14, 200620 yr I think its worth remembering that just because something is branded with an English name, doesn't mean to say the quality is the same, in the past I have bought ostensibly English tea that has no doubt come from a bona fide source but just doesn't match the quality of tea bought in England.
April 14, 200620 yr I heard it was the same with kellogs cornflakes, got the name but they taste like <deleted>.
April 14, 200620 yr I heard it was the same with kellogs cornflakes, got the name but they taste like <deleted>. This can be true
April 18, 200620 yr Just got back from Korat, saw Tesco own brand tea bags in there, no idea what they're like though.
April 18, 200620 yr Tops have the Waitrose brand of 'Strong english tea" which is what I buy. About 200 baht for 160 tea bags and very good. Twinnings English breakfast tea while OK is not very strong.
