Oh, yeah, I know. Brits will just throw a bag of the crappiest tea they have around in a teapot and move on with their day.

Which is a luxury you can afford when even middling supermarket tea is drinkable. Over where I am if you're doing tea you have an... affectation. Plus even if you don't want to, finding drinkable tea is hard enough that you end up going to the fancy stuff by default.
