Yup, Yorkshire insist it needs to be boiling. Not just boiled. Boiling.
Bit of both really. Duration is important, but in places where they just dispense water into a cup for you and stick a teabag in, you'll generally find it won't be hot enough even if you leave it for ages. Also, it really depends on the tea. Some teas need the water as hot as you can manage, others need it quite hot but not boiling. -

Time brew me a fresh Yorkshire in my plumbus mug.
Separate subject, I wish my petrol stations would stop bloody offering me a complimentary copy of the sun! Why the hell would I want that? They often seem genuinely surprised when I say I don't want it. "But it's a free read" :/.

I would not buy a copy but it's useful to get a balanced view. I follow a complete helmet from my home town on Twitter that is always retweeting ridiculous right wing trash just so I can see the other side of the debate -

Registered 16 years agoI'm a tea ponce, it used to be Twinings English Breakfast or Assam but Twinings fucked it up a few years ago so now it's Sainsburys English Breakfast, nothing else will do. Weirdly though it's a 'taste the difference' one and it's actually cheaper than most. I'm the only one who can make it right, even my wife doesn't get it right, my mum could but she's not around now. Given a choice if someone's making me a drink I'll ask for coffee, I can cope with a shit coffee but not a shit tea. -

Registered 15 years agoI’m an Azera guy if it’s out the can.
I work in a pretty big building and we have an illey, a benugos and a Costa.
I actually really like the illey but if you don’t like costa because they burn the shit out of the beans, benugos coffee tastes like it’s been roasted in mount doom. It’s absolutely fucking disgusting. -

Registered 14 years agoYorkshire Tea for me, and quite like the Nescafe Azera Decaf Americano, which isn't too bad.
Daren't drink too much caffeine as someone once told me it can set off labyrinthitis, and I've had 2 nasty spells of that so I'll do anything not to trigger a third.

No class on here. Earl grey for me.
I do have a pack of yorkshire tea for vistors normally, although I replaced that with PG last time because they were on offer.
Alta Rica is my instant coffee. Although I have some sympathy with the view that buying expensive instant coffee is like putting a cherry on a shit pie.
