From Tetley

Black tea (Orange Pekoe) is the most popular tea in the western world. The leaves of the Camellia Sinensis bush are expertly picked by hand just as they are for green tea, but after picking, they are allowed to naturally ferment. This process elicits a flavour that’s both exquisite and unmistakable. Each sip of Tetley Orange Pekoe Tea will tantalize your taste buds – making it easy for you to indulge in cup after delicious cup.

Tetley, loose leaf orange pekoe. This is my go to get you butt out the door morning cup. I brew it up nice and strong with a splash of milk. Two of these cups make the start of a great day.

I grew up drinking Tetley’s Orange Pekoe & it’ll always be a classic in my book. I like it nice & hot with just a couple spoons of sugar.

Classic black tea…I don’t think I could live without it. I’ve been drinking multiple cups of this a day for the last 15 years of my life.

Straight or doctored with milk and honey, like I’m having it tonight, I definitely prefer this to the bold Tetley. The taste is much more basic, much more classic. Perhaps it’s not the fanciest or the highest quality black tea out there, but this is what I grew up with, and it’s a comfort to have a nice big mug of it.

The ultimate comfort tea, an instant taste of my childhood :) A part of my morning routine for the last 23 years! I tend to steep this tea for longer than most. Perfect with a little bit of milk and when an extra bit of comfort is needed just add a touch of honey :)

This is my standard go-to Pekoe, I drink so much of it that I hardly know if I do it because I love it or it has just become habit. A bit of milk and sugar and I am good to go!

This is my every-day tea. Deep, comforting, and reminds me of my childhood. I always think of it as an equivalent to a fuzzy blanket on cold days, but I might be slightly biased.
Handles over-steeping fairly well, but I usually steep it for about 3 minutes.
Always enjoy with a splash of milk in your favorite mug (it’s just meant to be).
