We have been drinking this for 40 years. First it dis appearted from Tescos now I can't find it at Sainsburys.
I can't see it on Lyons website. I've tried other brands but can't get used to them.
Any suggestions?
I would buy Fairrtade if I could find one I liked.
And if I could get Lyons Red Label I'd buy a years supply (we get through nearly 2 packets a week)

Mulled Wine - how do you make yours?

Dancecaller - since it is blended by Tetley's do you think maybe one of their other products might be similar to your favorite?

Blended to produce an exceptionally rich full flavoured tea. This vital strength and colour comes from specially selected teas. There is only one short season in the year when Red Label's distinctive teas can be picked. These teas are scarce, thus limiting the supply of lyons Red Label for its flavour never varies. Blended and packaged by Tetleys.

These websites are still showing that you can order it from them:

Thanks. I'll phone tomorrow.
I notice that the websites are American.

Dancecaller - sorry but those were the only websites I could find that listed Lyons Red Label - I wasn't sure how desperate you were - but one of them was a wholesale one so I thought if you wanted to buy a lot at one time - that might be the way to go. I live in Chattanooga, Tennessee USA myself. I hope something I found for you helps - I know that can be frustrating when they stop making a product you have used for so many years.

Triumph.
Thank you.
Tetly have emailed me with details of their mail order.
The form will go in the post as soon as I work out how to do the paypal thing.
Apparently you can only buy it mail order or from Waitrose, and I dont think we have them in Cheshire.
