Having bought a box of our favourite…

Having bought a box of our favourite tea bags, we found that unfortunately some of the bags were torn and split. Contacted Yorkshire Tea about this problem and they were so understanding, took all details of the problem and batch number on the box etc, and have sent us a new box. Couldn’t ask for more.
Would highly recommend the tea and the company itself.

The teabags we buy are in twos we separate them before they go into the tea caddy.Some of them split and the tea goes everywhere. Yorkshire Tea asked for batch numbers for any problem teabags.I contacted them had a lovely quick email from them and a nice offer.
Such a pleasure to deal with a company with a genuine concern for their product and their customers,so rare these days.

Yorkshire Tea - a proper brew.

I raised an issue about a fault in some Yorkshire teabags, some weren’t sealed properly and they emptied the tea leaves out.
The process was easy, I just completed a form on the website, I had a holding reply and then a personal response within the day. The response was positive and helpful.
Enjoying a proper brew as I write.

Excellent customer service

I had a minor issue with my teabags (definitely a first world problem, but hey I love my tea!) I reached out to customer service and they were fantastic, explained what might have happened and sent me a replacement very quickly. Excellent service (and excellent tea💕)

Yorkshire Tea now so weak that even with 2 bags left in the teapot & stirred it is still not strong enough.
Have been buying Yorkshire tea bags for years but we are now going to try other brands to find a decent cup.
Shame on you Yorkshire Tea, you’ve been taking us for mugs!

Hi Peter, thank you for taking the time to leave a review and we're so sorry to hear your Yorkshire Tea brews haven't tasted quite right recently. If there’s ever a specific box you’re unhappy with, we’d really like to hear about it so we can pass the details to our Quality Assurance team. Our customer services team can look into this for you, plus just drop us a note at hello@yorkshiretea.co.uk. It would be helpful if you could include the blend, the box size, the best before date, and the production details printed on the base of the pack.

Spent £10 on 250 tea bags based on high reviews...

I spent £10 thinking this was going to be a quintessential black daily tea based on positive reviews by British drinkers.

This tea tastes like weak generic flavourless LIDL tea. It's one of the weakest teas I've ever drank both in flavour and caffeine buzz. I think the camomile tea I drink at night has more pep than this crap. I don't want to say that British people have bad taste, but this tea is pathetic.
