Common questions

What is the cheapest tea you stock per cup?

On our live ranking the cheapest is typically a large-format English Breakfast bag pack at roughly 2p to 4p per cup. The ranking at the top of this page updates automatically, so it reflects our current prices and stock.

How is price per cup calculated?

Pack price divided by the real number of cups in the pack, one tea bag makes one cup, loose-leaf by the recommended grams per cup. We show it on every product so you compare like for like instead of being misled by pack size.

Is cheaper tea worse quality?

Not necessarily. Large-format bagged English Breakfast from established British brands is inexpensive per cup because of pack size, not low quality. This ranking lets you find the lowest cost per cup without dropping to own-brand or bulk catering tea.

Do you offer free delivery?

Free UK delivery on orders over £35, Royal Mail Tracked. Below that, £3.65 standard tracked, dispatched same working day on orders before 2pm.
