You're in good company. James Bond hated tea, he thought it was responsible for the loss of the Empire. He loved coffee, though.

I'll add that to the list of things that makes Bond completely unbelievable then
Twinings Earl grey is my tea of choice, but its relatively pricy. For value my vote would go to Yorkshire tea.

Well, he is not entirely wrong, we did spend inordinate amounts of money on tea

Interesting fact I learned recently thanks to Extra History on Youtube: In the early 1800s 10% of all government revenue of the British Empire was spent on import duty of Tea.

When it comes to authentic tea from the Motherland, I have developed a taste for Taylors of Harrogate. Yorkshire and Earl Grey are my preferences.
That's when I don't indulge in green tea or good ol' Southern iced tea.

It's also where the phrase "Bengazi Burner" comes from.
Also, during the world as quite common to "test fire" the machine guns until the cooling water was boiling, and then brew tea wiTh it.
