leopardml2341 Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 We have currently switched from Tetley to Yorkshire tea, on an experimental basis. Taylor's over Tetley's any day of the week. That extends to both interpretations. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Gwiwer Posted January 18, 2017 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 18, 2017 I must be thirsty!!! It's been ages since I was here. Just visiting to record a need to empty the contents of the drinks cabinet before it gets packed for shipping. Part-empty containers cannot be shipped; full and sealed ones must be declared for duty including the St. Austell Proper Job I had delivered. As I don't wish to pay the Customs person for the privilege of enjoying them I'll drain the lot here over the next few weeks. Along with three bottles of single malt and half a rack of wines, various. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozexpatriate Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 (edited) Hmmm. This is an unintended consequence of changing the thread name from 'beer thread' to 'currently drinking'... In the literal sense of "currently drinking" (and not beer) I offer the following: Something of a vin ordinaire 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon from the Columbia Valley in Washington to help digest my cooking - nice and relevant since I was literally drinking it while reading this thread.

RMweb Premium Mark Forrest Posted January 18, 2017 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 18, 2017 Just had a very agreeable pint of Tring Brewery's Moongazing at Woburn Ale House. It's left me slightly underwhelmed by the pint of Wells Eagle IPA back at my hotel though. http://www.tringbrewery.co.uk/product/moongazing/ https://www.woburnalehouse.com 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashcombe Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Olddudders and I are enjoying our second TIB, which happens to be Typhoo as there was a special offer in Lidl. Otherwise, we are happy enough with their own brand. One of the few things on which we disagree (bear in mind we are newlyweds!) is whether tea is better made in a pot or in the mug. I favour the teapot, even when I'm alone, but he prefers the other method. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly you need to educate him out of his slovenly habits and getting him into proper British tea making And make sure he warms the pot first, this video will no doubt help - Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium PhilJ W Posted January 19, 2017 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 19, 2017 I can't drink tea made in the cup/mug, I use loose leaf tea. I make tea in a filter tea-pot which makes it almost as convenient as tea bags as the leaves are contained within the filter. Also the tea will not stew as the leaves can be removed after the first teas are poured. One problem with tea bags is that they are for the most part not compostable, if they were they would disintegrate as soon as the boiling water was poured onto them. I have found that the best tea for filter teapots is 'large leaf', the fine leaf teas as sold in most supermarkets clog the filter. I obtain my tea from the 'Wee Tea' company and find their breakfast blend to be excellent. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
