https://www.youtube.…grafician - You'll probably get more grief regarding how it's made than which one it is... I like Yorkshire Tea but that's bleedin obvious.MrT
- I’ve heard good things about yorkshirescarabin
- Also, what is the best biscuit for tea?scarabin
- So many possibilities... for me a bourbon, choc digestive or (I'll get flamed no doubt) a fig roll.
Or a Mitsubishi.MrT - For British-style Black Tea - Yorkshire Gold, scarabin. I keep trying alternative 'better' teas but meh. Whatever you do - NOT Tetleys or fucking Lipton.Nairn
- Every time I go abroad I take a bag filled with enough teabags for at least 2x the days I'm away. Actually, anytime I leave home, even in the UK.Nairn
- ..er.. I don't mean 'every time i leave home' like 'when I go to work or for a walk in the park'. That would be a bit weird.Nairn
- I also take tea-bag supplies on hols.MrT
- teabags are the devil's work. loose tea is the only tea to drinkhans_glib
- I worked at one of the Rothshchild's houses a couple of years back, and he offered to make me a tea but I refused saying that I preferred my bagged YT to hisNairn
- ...no doubt infinitely-better leaf tea (i'd brought a flask of my own stuff to drink thorugh the day). He looked at me with total bewilderment.Nairn
- Yorkshire Tea is my brand.Hayzilla
- Surprised there's so many votes for Yorkshire, I'm really not a fan. Either 2xPG tips bags or 2xTwinings Earl Gray, I like it strong.kalkal
- 2x bags of PG is exactly my long-trailing emergency runner-up to a Yorkshire Gold :)Nairn
