Ringtons Tea & Coffee

Firstly let me state for the record I am a die hard tea drinker who spits everything out other than the favoured brand (which happen to be Waitrose own strong blend teabags).

However, My wife supports the local bingo, making muffins & the like for the interval & invariably has come to join in the game (well why not!? ..she's there for a good few hours) ..this was a prize she chose (not being so fussy & precise a tea drinker as myself).

She wenr on holiday with our daughter for a week & as I was stuck without a vehicle, & having run out of my old favourites, ...I should explain, I get cross if I run out, like an addict, a bit cross because I simply know nothing will come close, so I tend to just drink water or root around for some old fruit teas in the back of the cupboard to tide me over (no hope).

These were sitting there on the top, I'd mentioned as to giving them to use for the refreshments, but in a fit of desperation deigned to try them...

From the first sip of a well stewed mug, not only did the equal my 30yr favourite, they surpassed them!
I'd never heard of Ringtons, jumped online & well, ..here I am.

I'm still reeling in shock, Ringtons has broke the mould for me as far as tea is concerned!

I had never heard of Ringtons tea until i went to Leeds to visit my aunt, she made a lovely cuppa, I was surprised when she said it was delivered to her door..unfortunately it is not delivered in my area of Kent..so i have been ordering it online for 2 years now..It's the best cup of tea and i wouldn't be without it..happy tea drinker !!!

I was having a Serious Debate with a friend on Twitter one day about the merits of a good cup of tea, and he was extolling the virtues of a Ringtons cuppa whilst I was assuring him that nothing could beat a cup of the tea apparently favoured by monkeys. Somebody at Ringtons was amused by this exchange and challenged me to try it for myself, even pointing me in the direction of Cuppas as the most likely 'replacement' for my normal brand. Never one to refuse a challenge, I duly ordered a packet, and gingerly took my first sip, expecting the worst - but I was very pleasantly surprised. So much so in fact that I had to apologise to my friend, who had affirmed this in the first place. Friends and family have also commented. Bye bye monkeys, hello Ringtons delivery van! This is gorgeous tea. Try it! (Posted on 01/06/2011)

Just the right strength if you do not like very strong tea.Always had it delivered but moved out of the delivery area , now order it on line with coffee and biscuits when I realised orders over £20 were delivered free!! I stock up every few weeks. (Posted on 02/06/2010)

Have them delivered to my door, great every day tea made in a mug.
No brand comes close - even family in Florida andTexas love it after we took some on holiday (Posted on 05/02/2010)

My mum send these out to me in Thailand for my Thai girlfriend, who can't handle the stronger Extra Fresh that I use.

I use these sometimes when I want a small mug of tea instead of my normal half-pint and they are excellent for a less strong cup that I usually prefer.

An extremely nice cup of tea. (Posted on 27/07/2009)

I have to say that this is the best cup of tea that you'll ever have. My Grandmother used to buy it, and as I can't get it where I live my brother buys in the stocks I need. No "off the supermarket shelf" tea comes close (bar one, but you have to wave the tea bag at the hot water for about 30 seconds to get a similarly, properly brewed, cup of Rington's). I have it at home, work, and even when I go camping or abroad! Can't do without it. (Posted on 22/12/2008)
