Not decaff.

[Loralei]

Yorkshire is the best decaff.

Yes. I prefer to buy fair trade tea but haven't yet found a nice decaff.

[Kenickie]

I get turned away from visiting family if I haven't brought them sufficient quantities of PG Tips decaff. Solidarity Ken!

[Turtle Bean]

Yorkshire is the only tea for me. I don't mind English Breakfast.

[ParisGal]

Don't you like the Clipper decaf, Lora? It's not as good as normal tea, but it's organic and fair trade and plastic free etc. etc.

[cluefree]

Decaf tea is currently making me feel very sad. I think Yorkshire is the most passable one I’ve tried but it’s a pale imitation of real tea.

[smalex]

Decaff tea is rank. I've given up trying. They all taste like chemicals. I buy clipper organic as a preference

I either don't, or it's rarely available. I can't now remember which.

[Kenickie]

I've kind of just got used to decaff now after having it for so long. I've forgotten what the good stuff tastes like.

[Ismee]

I drink Yorkshire tea decaf at home and it's lovely.

My cousin is something high up in marketing for PG Tips. I won't show him this thread.

They need to challenge that story about the floor sweepings. It's what I think of every time I hear PG Tips

[ParisGal]

People say that about all teabags don't they?

[sally maclennane]

I hate Clipper, we have it at work and its horrible. I've never tried the decaff one but I hate the regular one so much that I'm not keen to try it anyway.

[Disco]

I really hate Clipper as well. I'm pretty certain it's Typhoo (?sp?) in different clothing.

[H1ppychick]

I too like Yorkshire tea the best (Gold if poss) but Aldi’s is pretty good too, it tastes slightly honey-ish. I’m slightly sad that I had my last bag of it this morning, from a container I’d forgotten about till a month or so ago. I do have plenty of normal and decaf Yorkshire though.

[H1ppychick]

Also, Typhoo is horrible, PG Tips a bit better, and Tetley better than both.

[purple_dress]

It's been PG since the beginning of time in my family. I don't really drink it anymore though. I reckon there'll be a north/south divide on this. At uni, I remember northerners being really disgusted by the lack of good tea bags and the terrible hard water in London as well.

[Loralei]

People say that about all teabags don't they?

Quite possibly

Clipper has a very distinct taste; I can see why people wouldn't like it. Bert made me a cup recently after not drinking it for months and it was so earthy I thought she'd made me redbush for a minute. It's very different to Typhoo etc.

[Disco]

I always think Clipper tastes really wishy washy. I haven't had it for millions of years though so maybe my memory is twisted.
