    There's a local British store in Fanling? That's good news! Can you drop a pin? Thanks.

    I haven't come across it yet. I have had their biscuit tea but not really a fan.

    I used to like 759's large, cheap, large box of Ceylon tea (box has yellow and white stripes). Give it a try sometime. If you like it strong, can use two bags. Very cheap.

    It's a bit silly to pay big bucks for British branded tea while living in Hong Kong.
    To be honest, it's the cheap brands that I'd be more worried about regarding plastic. Maybe it's unfounded bias, but I think I can trust European brands more.

    I wouldn't say it's anything to write home about. It's a very small shop but you might find one or two things you like.

    You take what you can up north. I will be doing the same. One of these days M&S will make it past Sha Tin.

    Just opened up a box of M&S Luxury gold. It's fine, though I'm not sure there's much difference from just Everyday, Gold or Twinings. Except for the round tea bag vs the square.
