This is the famous discontinued one, and the cult around it is justified by how genuinely odd and well-executed the idea is. It really does smell of hot buttered toast off the cup, a warm charred-bread aroma rather than a chemical approximation, with a sweet strawberry-jam top note layered over it. Underneath, sensibly, sits a proper malty Yorkshire black backbone, so it drinks like an actual strong cup of tea wearing a breakfast costume rather than a thin flavoured novelty. Be clear-eyed about it though: it is a novelty, brilliant for the gimmick and the nostalgia, not something most people drink three times a day. Have it black to get the full toast-and-jam effect; milk pushes it toward a strange creamy direction. Because stock is finite and released slowly, treat a box as a one-off curio or a gift for the tea obsessive in your life rather than a daily driver. On its own terms, it absolutely delivers what it promises.
Yorkshire Tea Toast and Jam was a limited-edition novelty black tea from Taylors of Harrogate, built on the familiar Yorkshire Tea base with toasted-bread and strawberry-jam flavour notes. The line is discontinued and this pack is currently unavailable at teas.co.uk.
Availability: we are not taking orders or subscriptions for this product, and we do not have a confirmed restock date. The stock-alert form sends one email if it returns; it does not sign you up for marketing. Closely matched, currently in-stock Yorkshire flavoured brews are listed below.
Taste profile: a toasted-bread top note leads into gentle strawberry-jam sweetness, with the malty Yorkshire black-tea base underneath. It produces a full-bodied amber cup and can take a small splash of milk.
Pairing: the toast-and-jam direction works naturally with a plain digestive, buttered crumpet or simple shortbread. Treat it as a discontinued curiosity rather than relying on it as an everyday kitchen tea.
Curator notes: the tasting profile reflects our editorial review of the original pack format and brand information, cross-checked with brewing trials at the recommended steep time. Storage notes and brewing guidance are published in the product information below.
Yorkshire Tea Toast And Jam is more than just a drink; it is a sensory escape that captures the heart of a British morning. Designed for the adventurous palate, this blend addresses the requirement for a comforting, nostalgic cup that eliminates the need for a toaster.

🍃 The Story Behind the Yorkshire
Sustainability & Ethical Commitment
Yorkshire Tea is a pioneer in sustainable production, ensuring your rare cup respects the planet.
- Plant Based Bags: Features natural tea bag materials designed for effective infusion without the use of plastic glues.
🔍 How Does Yorkshire Tea Toast And Jam Compare to:
- Tetley Digestive Biscuit Tea: While Tetley captures the malty biscuit note, Yorkshire is much fruitier and has a bolder toasty aroma.
- Hyson Tea Bags: Hyson is focused on green tea vegetal purity, whereas Yorkshire Toast and Jam is a complex "concept" black tea.
- Standard Breakfast Teas: This blend is significantly more aromatic and sweeter, designed for a specific sensory experience rather than a plain base.
🫖 Brewing The Perfect Cup of Yorkshire Tea Toast and Jam, 40 Tea Bags 125g
- Water temperature: 100°C, just boiled water is essential for full extraction of theaflavins and thearubigins.
- Measure: One bag per 200ml of water for a standard cup; use 2 bags in 300ml if you want builder strength.
- Steep: 3 to 5 minutes; longer for a stronger, milkier cup, shorter for a lighter pour.
- Service: Add a splash of full fat milk and stir; sugar to taste. The tannins are balanced by the milk casein, which is why British tea is almost always drunk with milk.
- Iced version: Brew 4 bags strong in 500ml, dissolve 4 tablespoons of caster sugar in the warm tea, cool, dilute with 500ml of cold water and the juice of 2 lemons.
- Caffeine: contains caffeine; a product-specific milligram figure is not claimed.
- Best with: a full English breakfast, toast and marmalade, fruit cake, scones with cream.
