Punjana...followed by Lyons if it's not available.

Barrys teabags in the green box. Original blend I think. I find it refreshing. Got tea in the neighbours recently made with loose tea. Cue much coughing and spluttering when drinking the last mouthful. Had totally forgotten about tea leaves. Haven't seen loose tea being used in years.

I likes my Lyons I drink Barrys too, hate Bewelys

Son Of A Vidic · 03-10-2014 05:03PM

Bewley's is my favourite brand.

Miss Lizzie Jones · 03-10-2014 05:16PM

Typhoo or Twinings Orange Pekoe.

I tried Yorkshire Gold and liked it.

Punjahna make lovely tea.
But LIDL's own brand gold label tea is actually lovely and tasty too.

McGrath's Reserve from Aldi. Lyons and Barry's are for peasants.

I find Lyons very mild, a tea for wimps I think. I'm currently doing Tetley Blue. There's a red one in England which i don't see here, which if you believe my stepdad is the only tea you'll ever need. Not sure just how much of a difference there is between the two really though.

Typhoo

Lyons, Barry's, Bewleys and Aldi are all acceptable. PG Tips are ok with two teabags. Lipton ard just flavourless but its all in the brew. They all have slightly different flavours which I don't mind so long as its brewed long enough to get the flavour out. You'd be suprised how many people in work just pour the water in and straight away the milk. Leave it for at least two minutes before milk. And leave the teabag in for an awesome last sup

Le sigh. I have had many an argument with wife over what constitutes 'tea'. I suppose since this one contains actual tea leaves I'll let it pass but still...

Sunnyisland · 04-10-2014 09:43AM

Herbal/infusion teas for me.

cat_dog · 04-10-2014 09:44AM

Twinnings or Clipper

SweetChaos · 04-10-2014 09:49AM

McGraths Aldi brand Roberts Roberts make it and it is a lovely strong tea we drink a lot of tea in my house and 240 bags for 2.79 is a bargain

Just had a cup of some tesco value crap, its as weak as a used horn, if you like your tea avoid this,

Are you all teed of with them posters :-)

Balmed Out · 04-10-2014 10:15AM

Barrys all the way. This thread is really helping to show me who's opinions are so foolish to make them deserving of being added to my ignore list.

ToddyDoody · 04-10-2014 11:10AM

I prefer a cup of Larry's Gold Blend

DaveDaRave · 04-10-2014 12:36PM

I used to be a Barry's whore, but i cant taste the difference between barry's and fallon's(from lidl)

I have an excuse. I'm Canadian and we can get away with anything (pretty much).

Thompson's Irish breakfast tea.

I've started buying McGrath's tea from Aldi - excellent, used to mostly prefer Barry's.

Rubberchikken · 04-10-2014 04:21PM

McGeatha in aldi. 250 bags. Tastes great.
Barrys in work and its rank.

Inspired by the other tea related thread, which is your chosen brand?

Coffee.:)

Summer wind · 04-10-2014 10:07PM

I love Lyons tea we've always bought it.

greenflash · 04-10-2014 10:13PM

I hate pretty much everything about Cork except for Barry's tea.

foxy farmer · 04-10-2014 10:53PM

Mains water destroys tea for me. Chlorine and fluoride can be overpowering sometimes. Living in the countryside with well water, tea tastes so different to the tea you'd get in urban areas.
