Yeah, I think it's the same like German tea brands. Most more cheap
teas are a blend of Sumatra and African teas, maybe with some Ceylon.
The same with English bands like OG Tips, Tetley and so on. But thode
English ones give a really decent brew, the German teas don't (despite
some *really* good traditional Eastfresean teas like Bünting, Thiele
and Onno Behrends), esp. those in tea bags. Also the Assam, Ceylon or
even Darjeeling teas of German brands, sold in the supermarket, are
mostly not very good and much too expensive. For the same amount of
money, you can gat a real good tea at nearly every local teashop.
I have lived in Germany but now am back in the UK again. The English tea
bags are better than the German ones, if the tea is taken with milk and
when considering that each bag here contains 3g of tea, the German tea
bags contain mainly 1.5g.
