best tea

[Alex J]

just had a cup of twinings english breakfast tea that the old boy brought, very nice, but not sure if its as good as a yorkshire tea , whats the nation reckon..........................

[Rysee]

You get what you pay for, I stick to Pg or Tetley normally though

[mowgli]

yorkshire is a good every day cuppa. but twinings is very good.. the best cup of tea i ever had was served in a transport cafe that was demolished 20 years ago, and i have no idea what the tea was, but it was truly awesome.

Tesco's own tea bags in the brown/red box are quite nice, and pretty cheap too!!!
They make a well nice brew

[Rysee]

Currently have Co-Op fairtrade rubbish, not bad

[Lynsey]

Any tea does me :) I'm not picky- just a good, strong cuppa with milk and one sugar. Perfect ;)

I only drink tea when having fish & chips, usually Yorkshire tea.

[mowgli]

the trouble is that water tastes so different depending on where you live, that tea can taste massively different too.

when i lived in oxford, the water was so hard that tea tasted rank. but when i use bottled water, like when i go camping, it tastes heavenly

Same. IMO tea is tea! Except 2 sugars here, ta!!

Usually a Friday when I go to the chippy. Also our waters bloody terrible at home with too much chlorine so have a water filter ahhhhhhhh, enjoy the cuppa.

[mowgli]

do you have a round of buttered bread too??? cos that was always the best part of fish & chips when i was a kid.. the cup of tea was second best....

[Graeme]

Yorkshie tea can be bought for hard water areas

Ah good old Milk Roll lol Wish I was still a kid but round bread will suffice lol

[dougie_boi]

nambari is very good nice and strong or tetley

[mowgli]

a round of bread is 2 slices of (square) jumbo fresha bread..... milk roll is for puffs

I jest old boy lol

Where to start lol

I like Assam, its got a strong enough "basic" flavour which I like as an everyday tea. Twinings Assam is prety good. If I've got time, loose tea beats bagged sweepings all day long; I've got some really nice Robert Wilson Ceylon (breakfast blend is top).

Do like my monkey tea though, thats quite nice lol

This is very true, key to a good cup of tea is decent water.

[edit] Oh yeah and I thought the Yorkshire tea was Ok, but Westcountry tea is better :d
