Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch

The GP has told me to switch to decaf tea. Can anyone recommend a brand that actually tastes like tea and not sawdust?

I like my brew Nato standard -- strong enough for the spoon to stand up by itself, with milk and sugar.

The decaf tastes the same as the normal but needs a bit longer brewing

Yorkshire tea. Their decaf is excellent! Even Mr Ness will drink it and he's from Yorkshire and very fussy about his tea. šŸ˜‰šŸ˜‚

You don't fancy Rooibos/Redbush? It's naturally decaffed (in that it's not strictly a tea plant I think) but Liebling drinks it as per normal tea with milk etc

Not hugely keen on Rooibos (known as Rubbish round here) but not had it for a while. But since I have to adjust my taste in brews maybe it's due a revisit.

Wife drinks Rooibos. Iā€™d prefer the water collected after washing my fell shoes. Iā€™d go with Yorkshire, well mashed

:-) It does sometimes look like the water in a peat bog, that's true

We have supermarket own decaf, I found that once Iā€™d made the mental shift to stop thinking about it as a substitute for proper tea, but rather a different sort of beverage, I stopped expecting them to taste the same and soon got used to it

I am picky when it comes to tea and have always avoided cheap teas. Since I moved to decaf however, I use Aldis own which are about 1.39 for 80. Taste great to me!
