Tea From Lidl

[mikey4444]

Can I recommend the Kensington brand tea, that Lidl sells ? Its rather really good and isn't too weak, as some Earl Greys can be. I have been using it for a few weeks and I now no longer buy Twinings, which I have done for years.

Good tip thanks Mikey - will try it! Our nearest Lidl 16 miles away is closed at the moment undergoing refurbishment but we have one opening in our town soon.

Ann....I am not sure where you live, but I am lucky to have loads of Lidls around where I live in Swansea. I have counted all the ones within a 8 mile radius of my home, and there are 5 ! At present I am in Penzance and here there are at least 3 in a similar radius. They all have in-store bakeries by the way, and are highly addictive ! I tried out their Mulled Wine last night, and had to stop myself from drinking the whole bottle in one go !

I have also become a Lidl's fan recently. Their De Luxe range is great, the chocolate mousse are delicious, and the yogurts with caramel mmmmm. Bought lobster that is in the freezer so don't how that is yet, but tried the venison which was not bad for the price. And the wine ......... Not the best I have had, but adequate for a glass or two weekday evenings. Can't recommend them enough.

Have you tried the Pinotage Samuraisan ? Its very fruity, 14.5% and only £3.99 !
