Tea and tobacco pairings

[orlandofurioso]

Yorkshire Red, Pg Tips and Brook Bond Red are all in my rotation, but I do prefer Loose leaf over the bags,
also German East Frisian Tea blends are mighty good

German East Frisian , being an Assam, Ceylon and Darjeeling blend, is widely underrated .
Always loose leaves . For me a fresh brewed tea often turns an off day into a very tolerable one.

Cheers Paul !

For me it's Russian Caravan coupled with Mac Baren Latakia Flake but the tea has to be very good. I get mine blended by a lady in Richmond Tasmania where she runs a fabulous tea house but its one of those teas that can not be captured by mass production ie: Twinings

I like to combine Darjeeling, not to flowery with VaPer or straight Virginias.



For Latakia I like a strong and malty Assam like that with sugar and a dash of cream.



As iced tea you may use any tea, just iced, maybe with a splash of citrus or few peppermint or lemon-mint leaves.

English Breakfast tea with a dash of milk. Goes with every pipe
