New Tea for Australians from Twinings
Australians finally get their own tea. Twinings, after several tries and several months of work, have developed a new tea just for Australian tastes.
According to Twinings, only about five or six other countries in the world use milk in their tea like the Australians prefer to do. This required the right blend of teas that would work well with milk but also would be a bit “softer and more well-rounded” the way tea is preferred by Australians. This is different from the British preference for a very strong tea.
These were some of the things Twinings discovered about tea drinking peculiarities around the world. Among the above, they uncovered that 90% of Australians use tea bags as do most people in the U.S., whereas Chinese tea drinkers prefer loose leaves.
The new tea blend for Australians from Twinings is called “Simply Tea”.
