Ah, well I’m in Newfoundland and wanted to add some bags to the loose tea I brought. No keemun in this blend, it’s not bitter, but it doesn’t have much flavor at all. Made my next cup of Braveheart taste positively nutty. I’ll try adding a few minutes to see if it adds flavor, but I’m underwhelmed with this tetley.
Another teabag picked up in UK. In nose quite boring lacking character. The pouch indicates “Brew for 3-4 mins (or longer if preferred)”, and indeed, this long steeping time could well be ok for the tea doesn’t taste as bitter as the Twinings EB I had yesterday at similar steeping conditions.

Well, I was going to save Tasting Note #2000 for something extraordinary, but as I have a few minutes to share What One Learns From Steepster After This Many Tasting Notes, I’ll just make my observation about this humble and tasty little English Breakfast #1 on the list:
1. Sometimes the ordinary stuff is just as satisfying as the not-so-ordinary stuff. Sometimes even more.
2. I fritter away far too much time online.
3. Everybody needs a stash of solid, no-frills, can’t-ruin-it tea that requires absolutely no brains to steep.
4. Steepster people, you are fascinating, kind, creative, funny, insightful, well-read, and great fun to hang around. I have never (not counting spam) had an unpleasant or unkind encounter here.
5. Rating and reviewing tea scientifically is beyond me. I rely on weather and whimsy. You precise and consistent people amaze me.
Count your blessings, friends. A good cup of tea is one of them, but daily you are surrounded by ones that matter more.
2000!!! Congratulations!!!
“4. Steepster people, you are fascinating, kind, creative, funny, insightful, well-read, and great fun to hang around.”
And so are You!
Hear hear to all of your Steepster points! And congrats on 2000 notes!
Congratulations! I for one am delighted that you are here among us.
Congratulations! I relate wholeheartedly to your list. English Breakfast is a worthy #2000 tea :)
Way to go! We are fortunate to have good people on here every day. Count yourself in the fold.

Don’t ever change! I’ll take your whimsy over someones “mushroom croquette” analogy any day.
Mushroom croquette—sounds like something pixies would play with mallets and wickets :)
After a recent experience with a Lipton teabag, maybe I am overrating this. Or maybe not. because for a tea which sells basically in every supermarket for about 1.50€ for 30 teabags (or half price if you see a discount) this really is incredibly nice. I was planning to have it with milk, and was careless with brewing it, but it survived and took milk incredibly well.
I am quite flabbergasted at how nice this cheap teabag turned out to be. But very happy at the result! Stocking this up for sure, for those moments where teabags are convenient, though these not quite fit all my criteria not being individually wrapped (they would not be this price if they were, though!)
not expensive at all in portugal…2,30 € minimum here :)
Tetley is not bad you’re right Teresa
It gets worse even, a supermarket had a promotion this week, it is 69 cents for 30 teabags, that is about 2 cents per bag. I got to pick up a bag for my own!
this was tea, real tea, and a pretty nice breakfast tea bag, just very happy with it.
I don’t know if the Americanized version is the same but this is what I use when I just want simple iced tea. Quite nice and far more full flavored than Lipton.
K S might be the same, Tetley seems to have a relatively simple (at least compared to Lipton lineup). Though the pic on this does not quite match my product, mine it´s a foil bag with a zipper with 30 round no-string bags. And iced tea, hmm with a lot of (real) lemon, now that is a good idea now that it seems Spring has arrived with a bang!
Enjoy NFLD! :)
Ya, I haven’t been on a bad hike yet, and surprisingly not a lot of rain :)
