Sorry couldn't resist. Seriously though if anyone's coming back from UK with some teabags please bring an extra pack for me, I'm down to using one bag for 2 cups now!

Makes an excellent cup - add some chai spices and you have great chai tea.
Failing that, Tetley's English Breakfast tea from Migros is good too although a tad milder. Coop sells Twinings but at a rather high price.

By the way, didn't want to hijack the thread.
Dear OP I will be in UK from 25th to 30th September if you still haven't got what you want.

Bad Argus. They stuff called Tetley's does not resemble tea in any way, shape or form. As someone once said on this very forum it is made with the sweepings off the floor of the Tetley factory where they make the proper tea. 
Golprostew: check out Britshop for yout tea fix. Plenty of good tea imported from Blighty. | Quote: | | | | | Failing that, Tetley's English Breakfast tea from Migros is good too although a tad milder. Coop sells Twinings but at a rather high price. | | | | | |

The stuff those colonials export to Blighted is the bits the workers dust off their overalls, hair caps and aprons. | | This user would like to thank for this useful post: | |
