Made completely in-house in Somerset.

Our Original Blend of tea created by Derek Miles, has a high Assam content, for strength and colour, combined with high grown Kenyan teas, for flavour and brightness, to produce a mainstream blend of exeptional quality tea. Click Reviews to read our customers reviews.

The Original Blend, also known as traditional or Breakfast uses Assam teas for strength , colour and briskness, and African teas for flavour and brightness. By blending these two types it gives a blend that is rounded. It has colour so it looks great when poured, plus it is bright which looks attractive when milk is added. It has both strength and good flavour which are hard qualities to find in a single tea.

This pack contains 240 two cup teabags packed in a soft, heat sealed bag, an economical way to buy our Original Blend tea bags. Net weight: 750g

Put one tea bag per person into a teapot, or one tea bag into a mug. Fill the pot with boiling water and allow it to brew for 3 to 5 minutes before pouring. This tea can be drunk with milk or lemon, or on it's own.

5 stars Best Brew in Britain Written by Liz Carter-Jones
As someone who has been drinking tea since I was in my cot I have finally found the perfect brew. The combination of the Assam and Kenyan tea makes it thoroughly refreshing. It's my little bit of Somerset in my little corner of North Wales. No other tea comes close, so I tend to drink coffee when I'm away from home (unless I'm in Somerset, then it's widely available!)

5 stars Best tea I've tasted with softened water. Written by A. Matthews
We live in Berkshire - very hard water. We have had ion exchange water softening appliances since 1975 and I would not be without one. This original Miles tea, blended for naturally soft water, is fantastic with softened water. I'm a big tea drinker and I've never tasted any tea as good as this - thoroughly recommend this original blend.

5 stars The Taste of Home Written by Adam Harris

I am a Porlock Boy and moved to New Zealand 8 years ago. This is the 1 thing I really miss! I stocked up in september on my first trip home since I left but I`m nearly out and need someone to send me more! Can`t buy decent tea over here and it makes me sad! Thank you Derek for your Excellent tea!

5 stars Greatest ever tasting tea Written by L. Robinson

I first tasted this tea whilst on holiday in Devon in a small tea shop. The taste was so delicious and refreshing. I bought a bag to take home not sure if the taste would be as good in a hard water area, but is just as good. I'm a fussy tea drinker and prior to tasting this tea would only drink one brand. I now cannot go back to that brand. I have just ordered 840 bags to keep me going and will be buying again in the future. I really wish this tea was in the big supermarkets around the country. I'm sure it would do really well and hope to see it on the shelves in the future.

5 stars The best tea ever Written by C. Feldon
We first tasted this tea on holiday in Somerset this year. What delicious tea. We have run out of the large bag we bought in a Minehead supermarket and have now ordered a supply on line. Just as delicious with London water!

5 stars Best ever Written by Sandra Tredwell

I lived in Somerset for two years. I miss Miles tea along with the lovely people. There is no substitute for this refreshing and clean tasting tea on the market. I will stock up via on line ordering so as not to be without it in the cupboard. The website makes it such an easy process.

5 stars Still going strong! Written by Ann Bell
My husband and I came to Somerset for a short break in August 1995 and so enjoyed this tea that we continued to order it by post. I am still ordering it by post even though it would be more convenient to buy ordinary tea from my supermarket. This is definitely not 'ordinary' tea and people often comment on how nice it is.

5 stars Discovery of a new tea! Written by Jane Hall
Free samples from the Farm Shop at Escot near Honiton in June led me to send for a box of your Original tea bags. I live in Surrey in a very hard water area which makes such an impact on the taste of tea. The flavour blends well and makes a very refreshing 'cuppa' So am sending for more... . a bigger box this time!

5 stars Original Tea Bags. Written by W. Gill

A favourite when I'm staying in Somerset and remains a favourite when we return home to Surrey. Be careful if you live in a soft water area these will brew really quickly about 90secs! In hard water areas a touch longer maybe 2mins and you get a lovely refreshing rich golden brew. We recently bought 720 of these for home and we'll be buying another 720 later in the summer! If you don't live locally and you like the tea order some of this to remind you of Somerset...
