No Welch tea?
English breakfast, Irish breakfast, and Scottish breakfast teas are
easy to get, but apparently there is no Welsh tea for St. David's Day today. I'll need to be satisfied with my usual Assam, I guess. Toci

It's kind of a natives-only tradition, but you can add a few delicate shavings from the dried sprouting tips of a baby leek. -DdogMffwa

Can you believe the result was actually potable? I think I may be getting tired of my winter teas. Toci

Glengettie may not sound a very Welsh name but as a company they have
been producing a "strong Welsh Tea suitable for any time of the day" blended in . Wales since 1952 (Wedi'i Flendio Ar Gyfer Cymru Ers 1952). Their claim, and I have not verified this, is that the tea blend is specially designed to complement the region's soft water. The Glengettie company first developed its Welsh roots when it transferred production there following the removal of the Second World War tea controls, and with its bi-lingual pack is claimed to be the most popular tea in Wales.. However, do not get excited about brave little Dafydd fending off the Goliaths for the Glengettie brand is actually part of the UK Typhoo brand portfolio now owned by Indian parent company the Apeejay Surrendra Group, the third largest exporters of tea from India.
