LCurator note · PG Tips
If standard PG Tips reads too sharp and tannic for you, Gold is the same family with the edges sanded off: higher-grade leaf gives a rounder, almost velvety cup and a bread-like malt depth instead of the brisk slap. It still takes milk like the everyday blend, it just sips more kindly, which is why it works as an afternoon cup as much as a morning one. A modest, genuine step up for not much more money, not a different tea, a smoother one.
