It comes as twenty individually enveloped tagged bags, picked into the Teas.co.uk curator selection as a clean daily green that avoids the bitterness of lesser blends without demanding a fussy brewing routine, and a sensible step up from generic supermarket green-tea bags.The base is one hundred percent Chinese green tea supplemented with origins from Sri Lanka, India and Kenya, balanced for consistent vegetal freshness. It is the well-sourced, dependable choice for an everyday green: the cup tastes the same every time, a step above the harsh, dusty supermarket greens without moving into expensive single-origin territory, and the tagged bags suit at-desk and travel use particularly well, where loose pyramid temples are awkward, and it is the safe choice if a top-tier Mao Feng feels like overkill.Caffeine status: medium, roughly twenty to forty-five milligrams a cup, so it is a gentle daytime lift rather than a strong morning kick. Taste profile: mellow and refreshing with light grassy notes, vegetal freshness and a subtle natural sweetness. What it is: a pure everyday green blend carefully sourced from high-altitude gardens for reliable quality cup after cup, not the lottery of an unbranded green.Texture: a light, vibrant, clear pale-golden liquor that drinks silky and uplifting on the palate. Pairing: the vegetal notes pair well with a classic rich tea biscuit or a zesty lemon puff. Lifestyle: vegan, vegetarian, naturally gluten-free and sugar-free. Planet: twenty plant-based, plastic-free bags in fully recyclable FSC-certified packaging. Value: high-street quality at an accessible price compared to expensive organic single-origins, brewed off the boil at around 80 degrees for the cleanest cup, since boiling water turns any green tea bitter quickly. Excellent iced too.Curator notes: the tasting profile reflects our own editorial review against the current pack format and the brand spec sheet, cross-checked with brewing trials at the recommended steep time and water temperature. Every order includes a complimentary curator-picked tasting sample matched to the flavour direction you have shown a preference for, and we run same-day UK dispatch on every order placed before three in the afternoon, Monday to Friday. Storage notes, freshness windows and brewing temperature ranges are also published in the detailed Q and A tab below. ## Description True English Tea (T.E.T) Everyday Green Tea is a refined essential for the modern consumer seeking a sensory rich alternative to traditional black tea.

Standard Supermarket Greens: True English Tea uses premium leaves from high altitude gardens avoiding the dusty or bitter taste often found in budget alternatives. Brewing The Perfect Cup of True English Tea (T.E.T) Everyday Green Tea, 20 Tea Bags 35g Water temperature: 80°C (boil the kettle and let it rest for 90 seconds). Boiling water at 100°C destroys the delicate amino acids that give green tea its smooth, sweet character. Measure: One bag per 200ml of water (a standard mug). For loose leaf, use one heaped teaspoon. Steep: 2 to 3 minutes, any longer and the cup turns bitter. Remove the bag promptly; do not squeeze. Service: No milk and no sugar; the natural sweet grassy notes need nothing else. A slice of lemon brightens the cup if you prefer. Cold brew: Drop one bag into 250ml of cold water in a glass jug and refrigerate for 4 to 8 hours. The cold method extracts the sweeter compounds preferentially and is the smoothest way to drink green tea on a hot day. Iced version: Brew double strength (one bag in 100ml of 80°C water for 2 minutes), cool, pour over ice and dilute with cold water. Best with: sushi, sashimi, steamed rice dishes, dark chocolate, almond cake.

Caffeine: Contains caffeine; expect roughly 25 to 35mg per cup, around half a regular black tea and a third of a filter coffee. Pairs with L theanine for a slower, smoother lift. Allergens: No declared major allergens. May reduce iron absorption if drunk with meals; leave 30 minutes between cup and meal if you are iron deficient. Nutrient Note: Rich in EGCG, the principal antioxidant in green tea; L theanine smooths the caffeine effect and is the technical reason green tea feels less jittery than coffee. Sustainability: Sourced from named gardens in China, Japan, Sri Lanka or India; bags are plant based and home compostable where labelled. Shelf Life: See best before date printed on the pack; product remains safe past that date but loses aromatic strength.

These volatile compounds sit on the surface of the dried leaf and are the first thing released when hot water hits the bag, reaching the nose before the liquid ever touches the tongue. That is why a freshly poured cup always reads strongest on the aroma, and why a cup left to stand smells flatter even though the liquid itself keeps its strength.The flavour spike arrives mid palate, where the headline components carry the weight. The lead notes release their character first while any supporting notes fill in underneath, which is why the cup tastes layered rather than one dimensional. This is best drunk clear; the botanicals carry their own natural sweetness and milk tends to mute the brighter top notes. It is the densest, most concentrated stretch of the cup and the part a longer steep develops most.The base structure is the lingering finish: a clean, gently grassy note that resets the palate and invites the next sip. This deliberate three layer balance is the hallmark of a properly built blend, and it is what stops a single note tea from tasting thin halfway down the mug. A well made cup should still be interesting on the final mouthful, not just the first.Getting it right in the cup. Use one bag per 200 to 250ml and steep for 2 to 3 minutes at around 80°C; under steeping is the most common reason this blend tastes weaker than it should, because the heavier aromatic compounds are the slowest to leave the leaf. Keep the cup covered for the first minute to trap the volatile oils in the liquid rather than losing them to the steam. Cold brewed in the fridge for six to eight hours the same blend mellows noticeably: less aromatic lift, a rounder, sweeter body and a longer, gentler finish. Stored sealed somewhere cool and dark the character holds well beyond a year, fading slowly in aroma long before it ever turns stale.How water and temperature change it. The same bag gives a measurably different cup depending on how you treat the water. Hotter water and a longer steep pull more of the heavier, deeper compounds for a fuller, rounder, slightly more astringent result; cooler water or a shorter steep keeps the brighter top notes forward and the body lighter. Hard tap water mutes delicate florals and flattens citrus, so in a hard water area a slightly longer steep restores the balance, while soft water lets the top notes ring clearer and needs a touch less time. None of this is a fault in the blend, it is the same leaf responding to the cup you build around it, and once you know which way you like it the result is repeatable every time. ## Recipe Ideas True English Tea (T.E.T) Everyday Green Tea, 20 Tea Bags 35g works hot at 80°C, ice cold in a long jug, and as the base for some excellent summer cocktails.
