    World changing

    Posted by Robin Laws on Dec 30, 2025

    I watched a thing about what goes in commercial teabags. Tea dust, DDT, ethylene glycol, other toxins, microplastics and I was horrified, what I was drinking was the worst offender, yet the most popular! I found Jenier Teas. I ordered several sample packs. I worked out how to use the teabags supplied, not easy for the partially sighted, and made a cup of Mayfair Breakfast tea. The difference is life altering, flavour, bursting with flavour, across the tongue, an even warm blanket of balanced flavour, without a harsh astringent note. Plus a pleasant scent that compliments the taste perfectly. Oddly, I drink less tea now, but less is more, each mug is more satisfying, I’m not chasing a flavour I will never get in a commercial teabags, this more pure rounded tea is satisfying and rewarding. I don’t know if it makes a difference, but for completeness, I don’t take sugar, and use pasteurised semi skimmed milk. I will mot be going back to the teas you see in the shops!

    Not my favourite

    I personally do not find this tea tasty enough. You have to use quite a lot and let it brew for longer than others I've had. The Balmoral is much better

    Serious problem ?

    Posted by Matt Fellows on Jan 23, 2024

    The problem with this tea is that it is so good that I literally can't drink anything else ! I can't have a cup of tea around anyone's house anymore as the quality of this blend makes everything else taste dull. Luckily you can keep a few homemade teabags in your pockets but your friends might think you're a snob. Until they try it themselves! Be warned There is no going back....
