Lyons for me too. I also try to look for biodegradable teabags so they are less likely to contain plastics/bleach.

You are correct - The actual bag is because more and more are removing plastics - so the amount of leaf is reduced because the weight can't take it. Leaf tea is the way to go for good quality strong tea. I haven't properly made the switch but working on it.

Fallons gold blend from lidl.

Problems arise because people don't know how to make a decent cup of tae regardless if it's Barry's or Lyons. Yep I went there. 🙂

As long as the bag or bags are left in long enough and no milk is added until the bag is removed then either Lyons or Barry's are good. Not many would pass the taste difference test.

Over the years i stopped both milk and sugar. I can't tell any difference between the usual brands.

I was introduced to "proper" tea leaves by an eastern european lady, and not the Lyons or Barrys ones. I couldn't believe the difference on that. But it does take a lot longer to make, so now I've a pot on the go from just after lunch.

Lyons a few years back but got fed up with the quality of the tea bags in almost every box.

After various try-outs, our preference is Tetley and I easily get through 10 cups daily 😳
