I will avoid AA, I can't stand tea, I'll just drink KEO.

Hendersons Relish which is similar to Worcester Sauce is still made in the same small factory in Sheffield quite close to Sheffield University; unlike many others it has not been sucked into some large conglomorate, I believe that the Romans and later the Vikings even took some home with them.

What is so special about Yorkshire Tea? I assume it is not grown in Yorkshire, so what is done to it?

Yorkshire tea has to be made with Yorkshire water, the water is the key to a good pot.

FYI There are many more Greek Cypriots living in uk than in Cyprus hence bringing over some Cyprus products that are sold mainly at Yasirhalim Supermarket. A Turkish Supermarket were all Greeks go and by Greek Cypriot food.

Yummy yummy good old fashioned fresh Koullori on a Sunday morning. I bet Orphanides don't open on a Sunday morning..

As for the Yorkshire Tea I was not trying to be rude, all I was trying to say was the Greek Cypriots, well they aren’t really fond of us brits, they would rather sell more Russian/Polish products, only because there the new money bags over there, I was just asking in general if any other country sell Yorkshire tea..
