Tea drinkers in the UK:

where do you get your tea that isn’t a supermarket? I’ve been importing my tea because I can’t stand British flavour profiles & black tea but my supplier no longer ships to the UK.

I like:

Roiboos blends with spices and/or fruit

Fruity green/white tea

Current faves include

Roiboos & bilberry

Roiboos & cinnamon, cardamom, cloves, ginger, vanilla

Roiboos & elderberry

Green tea & yuzu & ginger

White tea & blackcurrant

White tea & pear, apple

HELP IM DESPERATE I can only keep drinking twinings green tea & lemon for so long

#I spent so LONG in the biggest Tesco near me yesterday staring at the tea shelves and finding mainly black tea #and some truly atrocious choices from tetley and twinings for their green tea ranges #there was one single box of plain roiboos available #hilarious thing is I used to drink mainly clipper infusions back home and since it’s a British company I thought I could just continue #but no! the specific ones I liked are UNAVAILABLE here!#I KNEW I should’ve picked up a box or two when I was home over the holidays #they have a roiboos one that has cinnamon and liquorice root in it and it’s not even listed on the UK website #urghegrhrhe #please there must be a tea shop in London that overcharges but is capable of putting together something like the above #it can’t possibly cost more than it costs me to import Scandinavian tea
