I’ve been a Pg tea drinker since I was a little girl and I’ve noticed over the last couple of months that the taste has changed it isn’t as strong as it used to be so I have changed my tea to Twinings Strong English Breakfast and the taste is just perfect I today bought the new biodegradable PG tips pyramid bags and the bags did not make any of the explained problems here. I am not sure how hard others stir their bag in the mug, but I can tell for myself I only drink it very strong. So keep up the good and sustainable work ! Terrible tasting tea. It tastes awful. How it ever came to be Britain's no. 1 i will never know!! Thompson's tea and particularly their "Punjana" tea bags taste far, far better.

I am 65 years old and was brought up on PG Tips. I use a teapot, 3 tea bags was a perfect blend. Now I am putting hand fulls of tea bags in, just to get a bit of flavour. So when these run out I will definatley be changing brand. I like Yorkshire Tea and Tetley Tea but PG always had that edge. It went downhill when they reduced the size of the tea bag a few years ago from 3.125 g per bag to 2.9 g per bag. At this point I started buying the extra Strong blend to compensate. Following changes at a manufacturing level, our PureTea Granules, which account for less than 1% of our total portfolio, no longer hit the high taste standards our consumers know and love,” said Liam McNamara,UK&I general manager at PG Tips brand owner Lipton Teas & Infusions.Our master blenders have developed a new, improved blend to quench the nation’s thirst. Our new Perfect Flavour Release bag ensures our most refreshing, flavourful and full-bodied taste in 60 seconds. I love PG tips looseleaf tea not the teabags teabags taste, terrible but looseleaf tea is the best in a pot steeped for four minutes. It’s worth the time and the effort for a perfect cup of tea. The aroma the taste the smell it’s all there but not in the teabags, forget the teabags, always go to looseleaf tea.

All our Ingredients are made exclusively under license for Coffee Solutions But today I had to buy some more as I had run out. What did I find……now 210 instead of 240 bags, no longer pyramid and a very definite change in flavour! (Oh and an increase in price). So to me they are now a completely different teabag 😡. Thanks PG Tips, I now have to find a replacement 😡. Why did you need to change a winning formula? I hope that reduced revenue will show you what a huge mistake you have made!!! As a result, the product had been temporarily pulled as PG Tips took “some time out to review our options”, McNamara added.New teabags are too big, and the tea now tastes bitter. I'm looking for a new tea now...after always drinking PG Tips. I even took my own supply when going away. "Why fix it, if it ain't broke?"
