Red Rose is well known here. Though for that matter I can get Yorkshire (red and gold both) at one of the local markets. But only as tea bags. As you may have noticed, I don't do tea bags unless I make them myself.
What I've noticed is that most "English Breakfast" teas leave me cold. Too much Ceylon, I think, though I might have that wrong. What I like about the Peet's English Breakfast, or the Murchie's Prince Charles, is that they brew quite acceptably at 195F. (In fact the Murchie's is better at 195. The Peet's equal, if different. )
A diet coke this evening. Not a good day. Critical server is failing, and I have nothing in the budget for repairs or replacement. I get to nurse it along for at least another month.
