They do a range of Fairtrade Tea in round tea bags that is marketed as Mild/Medium/Extra strong - far superior to that Lipton yellow label rubbish!

M&S do a decent range of good teas and coffee. They are also the only place that sells Assam in bags. That's good, as is the Ceylon. Their prices are surprisingly reasonable.

Well I'm glad we're all agreed - Liptons is vile. But Dilmah? Even worse.

SO i got some Yorkshire tea from the Lulu next to Etihad towers, good stuff, not bad at all. They had a pretty large range of tea in there, lots of twinnings ones.

Met the bloke who is the procurement manager for Lulu once, he was very drunk as i recal!

Go straight for any English breakfast teabags. Theyre ballsier than the average teabag.

They also have a shop/cafe in Festival City, next to M&S. Unlike the UK branches they sell a limited range of stuff and all own brand.
