BTW, isn't it easily available in any hypermarket and supermarket?

Lotsa brands such as Ahmed tea, Lipton, Boh, Twinning, and even TEsco also having their collections of English Teas dy if I'm not mistaken

In actual there are no English tea, none at all. There are British makers and most of the tea leaves are grown here in Malaysia, Ceylon and India. It is the blend and the region. Earl Grey is actually premium tea leaves with a citrus flavour (bergamot), Darjeeling tea, breakfast tea are also called english tea. British branded means English tea. Those flavoured tea made by Boh is actually not bad, don't judge by the brand.

I am from CH and I can attest that those tea leaves I bought from CH tasted better than those found on the shelves in the supermarkets here. I don't know why, maybe the freshness or a different grade but the packing and weight is the same. If my daughter visits her BF or I visit CH, I will definitely buy a fresh pack. I drink almost 2 to 3 liters of tea a day, so I know.

I forgotten another famous brand Dilmah...Also available in any supermarkets/ hypermarkets

Dilmah and Twinnings is good and can be easily found in supermarket

Try Tea Republic in Bangsar Shopping Centre

oh i'm just wondering are there any specialize english tea. catering just for the english type of flavour. haha if none i'll just have to make do with them


hmmm i guess i'm answered that there no 'English tea'.
so u mean the same brand like for example Lipton that you get from CH is taste better than the Lipton u get from Giant/tesco?


haha no la like what i said above just wondering if there's any tea which are for 'English tongue' interested to try


kk thx!! will try

Normally English tongue = Ceylonese tea lor.

Lipton is not from CH-lah, In CH only 3 major tea plantations/producers i.e Boh, Bharat & Blue Valley. Boh is more famous but they also started to import their tea already.

I find Lipton with their mixed tea bags still the best comparing to those from CH..well my personal taste. haha

But the best tea I ever tasted was from a small retro hainanese coffee shop in M'cca - (Closed liao). their tea dust was a mixed of atleast 6 tea dust from Ceylon, Darjeeling & even local brand.. The aroma..walao eh..still kenot get this till Today...haizzz

Can try Harrods. One tin can cost Rm42 150g..

example oni ma
oooooo icic. do u mix ur tea?

kk will do thx!

if want drink english thing, must drink their coffee. best of best! I am some one who dont drink coffee but the smell from my sis's coffee during my time in newcatle, i cant hold myself and finally drink coiffee becoz the aroma is just so awesome.

lolx!! thread about english tea le bro haha what's the coffee brand u talking about?

Anyway, there is no english tea in the market lor.. Either Ceylonese tea, Darjeeling, M'sian Tea, China black tea, Taiwanese black tea or even Indonesian Tea.. England dun produce any tea wan haha

lolx.. kk noted thx! any tea u wanna recommend?

As I told, you, Till now, I still can't find any kopitiam that served real blended tean dust from diff countries like what I experienced 2 decades ago in one Hainanese kopitiam. The best right now still the simple - Lipton teabg.. much better than Boh, Bharat, Dilmah or even twinning ..cheap sumore
