CaféDirect now claims that its new TeaDirect brand has overtaken Brooke Bond tea to become the 7th largest tea brand in the UK.
Not that I drink tea (how un-English is that!) but both my Polish and French friends do (Hi Lukasz, Hi Nic) not with milk but with a slice of lemon. Coffee is my thing - and I always return to the Café Direct brand (medium roast, the one in the blue bag) not just because it is fairtrade, although that is important, but because it just tastes the best!
I've just checked the tea-bags in the cupboard. While they are still fairtrade they are produced by Clipper Teas. No idea where this brand fall in the sales league though.

How about doing something for the environment by dumping the unneccessary packaging i.e. the bags. these bags may taste good compared to others but nothing really beats tea brewed freshky in the pot – sans bag. What i can't believe is the number of Tea Bag Rooms masquerading as Tea Rooms.
