LCurator note · Tetley
The clever part is that it genuinely tastes like a digestive already dunked in the tea, baked-grain and caramel on the nose, a toasted-wheat finish, without a single crumb. It works because it is still 91 percent real black tea, so it brews as a proper creamy cup that takes milk rather than a sweet syrupy gimmick. A novelty, yes, but a well-made one: the cup to reach for when the biscuit tin is calling and you would rather it did not.

About this tea
Tetley Digestive Biscuits, in brief.
Caffeine status: a moderate level, roughly thirty-five to fifty milligrams a cup, so it is an easy daytime treat rather than a strong morning hit or an evening tea. Taste profile: deeply malty and smooth with notes of toasted grain and baked caramel, then a familiar biscuity sweetness that takes milk beautifully. What it is: a crumb-free take on a classic digestive, built on real black tea rather than flavoured fragments.
