Spotted these in Aldi the other day, its a Twinings Tea selection box (£1 per box) you get 25 tea bags in it, 5 Assam, 5 Earl grey, 5 Ceylon, 5 lady grey and 5 english breakfast.
they're individually wrapped and then bagged in 5's ready for your brew kit!

i'm away this weekend, i reckon english breakfast with my scrambled egg, then assam later on, follow with lady grey with dinner then some Ceylon before i turn in

Yup - me too!

I prefer to take loose leaf green tea and a wire mesh tea ball.
that way I can just shake out the tea leaves onto the forest floor.
less mess.

 

[Shewie]

Isn't tea for old ladies anyway ?

Yeah, but these are Twinings tea bags. None of your verminous PG or Tetleys. Posh tea, not builder's tea.

What's wrong with nettle tea, it's free if you can find the nettles.
Yum yum.

Brilliant
They had Duchy Originals recently, lovely stuff but too damned dear normally.

That's a good price!

I usually go to the Twinings shop in the City for my packaged Earl Grey, but its really expensive to buy them this way, so I use zip lock bags from Captain Bags, here.

 

[Melonfish]

Builders tea? Egads, you mean stew for half an hour and show the cow the cup?

 

[Mesquite]

Where's the Lapsang Souchong selection?

Best tea to have by the fire in my opinion. Sweet and black.. no worrying about milk

I speak with a lot of Americans through my stove hobby and these guys are scattered throughout North America; one thing they all have in common is a love of Lapsang Souchong

If you look at that blends history it came about as a way of using poor grade tea, just scent it and let some sucker buy it but the yanks love the stuff.

Sorry Mesquite, for me this stuff tastes like warm water with a good splash of Blue Stratos aftershave thrown in.
