Tetley Orange Pekoe Decaffeinated

The decaf orange pekoe is an 80-count box, not the 72-count regular. Tetley put the same plant-based bag tissue on this carton as on the caffeinated range.

The firm started in 1837. Tata bought it in 2000. Tetley.ca still calls the brand Canada's number 1 tea, which is a sales claim.

The Canadian company is an importer in Toronto. Most Tetley tea for Canada is made in north-east England. A smaller share is made in Poland. The leaf is mostly African, led by Kenya.
