Decent teabags
Have tried Bushells, Lipton and various tetley varieties, and the best one by far is Tetley's all rounder teabags.. (was a pg tips girl in the UK)

Re: Decent teabags
Hi, Don't know about where you are but we can get PG Tips in Woolworths, IGA and Coles, but obviously, they are dearer here than in UK. I also had 2 huge boxes shipped over with our furniture.

Try Dilmah Extra Strong Square Bags. As good as, possibly better than, PG

Re: Decent teabags
Or try the Lipton Intense if you haven't already. Didn't drink PG so not sure how it compares.

Re: Decent teabags
There is a shop in Miranda in Sydney that sells PG Tips (and other uk stuff) so occasionally I treat myself to a box of t-bags. Failing that I found Lipton to be woeful, Dilmah is great though and also Coles tbags are pretty good too.

Re: Decent teabags
I am so lucky I love my tea as weak as Nats Pee so waving the bag at the cup and colouring the water and milk slightly mean I can use all the woolworths own brands and even lesser teas and not noticed a difference.
When enjoying real tea I head for the tea shop and buy individual tea leaves for specific taste.
