Real tea...... If you really want to know.....

Black tea from the second pickings (the second flush) in the Brahmaputra valley - it has no equal and is nearly as good in tea bags as it is loose. (Horses for courses )
Fortnums will show you how to get it when it's newly arrived in the UK. It does freeze but then needs careful handling.
I got this in a discussion about decent tea with my advanced flying Instructor while we were doing 4minute holds waiting for another ILS at MCR. He was from Kashmir.
