PG tips - Home Anmeldelser 576

PG Tips used to be one of the best teas in pyramid tea bags for normal everyday use and has been the one and only in our household for decades. When they changed their product to flat, square teabags the tea itself also changed. There aren’t any tealeaves in the bags anymore but just teapowder, the leftovers after the leaves have been taken for other ( better ) products. The amount has also shrunk so that all taste is lost. It’s like dishwater when rinsing your teacup. At first I thought it was only on the continental market but apparently it’s in Britain as well.
We will now look for another brand and I doubt we’ll try PG Tips again any time soon. Doesn’t deserve even the one star.

I have been buying pg tips earl grey tea bag from amazon as I can't seem to get them in the shops, recently it has a different taste altogether and it isn't good. Will be going back to twinnings.

What has gone wrong with PG Tips ?
They are terrible now, tasting off and leaving an after taste... Who makes these decisions.
They can't be using customer forums to help them make informed decisions.
Just thrown away a full box and moved to Yorkshire Tea

Having had the pyramid bags for years , I was disappointed when they were discontinued. I’ve tried 2 boxes of the new ones, thought it was my taste buds but they are awful . Goodbye pg tips. Have to look for something else

Disgusting! Will not be drinking this dishwater ever again!

I have read some off the reviews and I must say I feel exactly the same along with others I have used them for many years with grate satisfaction but on using the new square shape everything has changed from shape and worst off all the taste shall have to look for an alternative I can’t accept the flavour any longer, please re think your changes and return to the good old formula

Mind blown. Large box of Pg absolutely every bag is open and empty with all the tea loose in the box. Every single one of them. How on earth did these get through quality control.
What has happened to you! Once Britain's loved, now completely incompetent.

Quality has gone way down. Actually really sad to see. Once a staple, now a stumble. Improvement now.

They now have hardly any flavour. I drink weak black tea with a sweetener. Now leave it longer but need 2 sweetners to get any flavour now . My tesco decaff still only need one sweetener. Also having to split the tea bags each time. I split them all and put in a tin and now have over 2 hundred to use yet. So disappointed. Pyramid tea bags were great

Noticed change of taste and blamed my sweeteners then milk then water. Turned out it's the tea bags.
Jumping ship after many years - sad

What’s happened to PG tips. It’s horrible now. I thought it was me but everyone agrees. I’ve got a full box to bin. I have always bought PG but couldn’t believe it. Not going to buy again unless it goes back.

What have you done to your tea bags and your brand?! I LOVED the pyramid tea bags. They had a depth of flavour and certain sweetness. It made me stick with this brand over all others. The new flat bags taste like dish water. It makes no difference how you brew them. The taste is weak and not at all like tea. Unfortunately I shall not be buying another box until you switch back.

I bought a big 240bag box last week expecting it to be good like it was,but no it has a revolting bitter taste so regret purchasing that large box .I had put the majority of it in the tin I still have that celebrated its 75 years when that was ,that however has been removed back to the cardboard box of purchase and another brand is now in its place. Which will be drunk by us .
The PG Tips will be binned.

These new tea bags take a lot longer than the acclaimed 30 seconds, even after 2 minutes they still don't taste the same as the pyamid bags did, I've been a faithful pg tips tea drinker for more then 40 years but sadly I have now switched to a different brand that satifies me, as I understand the vast majority of pg tips drinkers are dis-satisfied, so come on PG, turn the clock back , go back to the pyramid bad and the same tea that was inside it. It wasn't broke, so why did you spend all thet money fixing it.
Alex.

Pg tips have got very poor quality over the years not as strong and bags keep splitting and tea inside the box instead of in the bags discustiing also they not cheap also

PG loose tea isn’t worth any stars but I have give 1 * this tea is total crap, no leaves just minute black spots. No flavour no taste & very weak. Never again I’ll go back to Yorkshire Tea.

What has happened to these tea bags, I have used pg tips for decades bit now having to change,
They are weak ! And less leaves per bag
Bye bye PG

PG Tips? More like PG shit! I have been drinking PG for more than 45 years. After moving to France some years ago I have stocked up upon each visit to the UK to be able to support the habit. However having recently used the last of the pyramid stocks I opened the latest box of the "new" square bags and shock horror what a total load of crap the taste is awful. I now have over a 1000 bags that are good only as fire lighters! Instant switch to "Yorkshire" well done PG management your company in heading for the sewer and you deserve it!

I decided to investigate online whether I had somehow mixed up a batch of cheap tea bags with PG tips when transferring them to caddies or whether other people had noticed a problem. I’d bought the cheap ones when no PG stocked. What on earth have you done to this historic brand? The water takes an age to change colour and the flavour is so weak it can barely be described as tea. Sadly I have a huge box to get through. It will be my last unless you return to your old blend. I’ve been drinking PG Tips for 65 years. So sad.

Another one here to say how PG tips has ruined their tea and in time, their reputation.
It's bland, tasteless and not worthy to be bought again..
Like other companies at this present time, they are coming up with nonsense reasons why they changed their tea.
Absolute B...s!
The real reason is to save them money. Well, they won't have any after changing their teabags, nobody will continuing buying them.
Id love to know how they came up with this nonsense in the Boardroom, what clever souls they must be?!?!🤔😉
