"A lovely cup of tea, it really does have it all. I know its called breakfast tea, but I have it any time of day. It is also a good base for a bit of mix 'n' match - a small scoop of this with a half scoop of the Smoky Russian is delicious, or even with the Classic Chai. A good all rounder :-)"
"I visited the Bird & Blend Tea Co. shop in Windsor when on vacation from the US in May 2026. After I ran through the fabulous tea I'd purchased, in July 2026 I ordered a box of the Great British Cuppa Tea Bag Gift and another tea bag flavor - I am so glad they ship internationally. I enjoy a cuppa Bird & Blend tea daily! Rich and delicious - relaxing as well!"
"This is literally the most amazing cup of tea I’ve ever had. On a recent trip to Liverpool with my Mum, we found this gem on bold Street. It will now be a regular order from home here in the states but a definite stop every time we’re in Liverpool!! The ladies at the shop were so kind to my mom on her first trip across the pond. She’s a Tea lover now! Thank you for your delicious teas and for making us feel at home! Already received my first order of Great British Cuppa!!! Cheers!!! YNWA❤️"
"This is my go-to tea for a morning cuppa. It’s a strong tasting tea and I love that. I much prefer it to other well known brands!"
"This was a gift for my lovely tea-obsessed colleague who is leaving the team! I have tried these separately and one of the best classic black teas going!"
"A nice blend of floral and smokey tea to start of the morning. Smoother than Builder’s brew but not a floral as the Assam or Earl Grey"
"Since trying this tea, I can’t drink my shop bought tea. I didn’t know a tea can have so much taste and enjoyment. This is a keeper"
"I bought the tea bags by mistake (I wanted loose tea) but was impressed. Really nice flavour."
"As I drink my tea Very weak I have tried nearly all supermarkets loose leaf tea and they are usually very fine and not very good used in a tea strainer. But purely by chance I discovered your shop and bought some lose leaf tea and it was really good, definitely will buy again when I am in Lincoln."
"The name of this tea said, 'strong tea' to me but it isn't. It is clean and fresh tasting and as I drink tea black it definitely isn't too strong. Great."
