Personali-tea? Tesco Organic Tea Bags. ~ Tea ~ So, what do we know about tea? Does it have any Personali-tea or not? I suspect most of us have some ideas about it but not a great deal. For example, I know of the Boston Tea Party events that took place in December 1773. I know that Tea Bags often have the left over tea - the dust if you like - left once loose tea leaves have been produced. I wasn't aware for a while it was Tetley's in the UK who produced the first commercial tea bags as a direct result of rationing of WW2. Nor did I realize there are more than just Black and Green Teas until hunting for some information about it. You can ...  Read the complete review

Tea breaks, they are my salvation, I am temping as a receptionist at the moment and the only thing I look forward to are my tea breaks, they help break up the tedium of my day. The office I am in at the moment have something called Lipton Yellow Label Tea Bags and I hadn’t heard of it before so I decided I could write a completely unbiased review. Lipton is owned by Unilever and comes in a bright yellow box. When you open up this box the teabags are in perfect lines wearing little yellow tags like jackets. The tea bags themselves are the sort that you use in the cup, a finely perforated bag with a long string attached and a small paper tag at the ...  Read the complete review

I first discovered Lord Nelson Earl Grey tea when my boss asked me if I would like to try a cup. Having tried earl grey tea in the past and thinking that it tasted like perfume or something, I declined. Oh, go on, she said ? so I did, I had a cup. I was really pleasantly surprised. So here goes? PRODUCT Lord Nelson Earl Grey tea is a tea that comes in string teabags. Earl grey tea is basically normal black tea with bergamot flavour in it. Until I started drinking it, I thought it was some fancy pick of tea but no, its not. PACKAGING The individual teabags come in black pouches. The box that holds the teabags is yellow and black.

I am allergic to dairy products, and love tea. I drink loads of it. But as I can't have dairy products, I always drink my tea black. And without sugar (I'm sweet enough, obviously!). So what? Well, unless you are like me, you probably won't realise that a lot of teas are very bitter, especially if stewed for a longer period, which makes them quite unpalatable if you don't alter the drink by adding milk. Milk cools the tea down, but also takes any bitterness away. Probably the best tea I have found to drink is the Golden De Luxe tea bags, produced by Northern Tea Merchants. They cost £1.89 for 110 tea bags, which makes then ...  Read the complete review

I love this product! Yorkshire tea is a bit pricier than most but defiantly worth the extra pennies if you are a real tea lover like me! There are 2 types, normal and tea for hard water areas. I live in a hard water area and didn't realise what a difference it can make to the taste of your tea. I sampled tea for hard water areas and it was the best cuppa ever! It is defiantly not a gimmick, if you live in a hard water area, try these. It makes a lovely strong cuppa without having to squeeze the tea bag to a pulp, great colour, and most importantly tastes great. I never thought I would see the day when I praise a tea bag, but i've been converted! If you go ...  Read the complete review
