PG Tips Special Blends are a new lineup of products from the UK-based tea brand that are crafted with several tea leaves in the mix to provide a distinct flavor experience when brewed. The range consists of four options in all including Chai, Early Grey, English Breakfast and Gold, which are each formulated to complement the practice of adding milk to tea in the UK. This follows on market research that revealed many consumers take their tea with a splash of dairy or plant-based milk.
PG Tips Special Blends are making their debut at Tesco and Sainsbury's locations with a wider launch slated to take place in the near-future. The teas come in boxes with 70 bags to support everyday enjoyment.
