Oh! no you don't! You need boiling water to bring out the tannin in the tea so much favoured in UK - why Yorkshire Tea and tea bags are so popular. 90C makes tea very well indeed but without releasing so much tannin. Yorkshire tea drinkers wouldn't like this, I don't suppose for one second! But you could try it.... you need boiling water to make tea ...

Blimey! Never knew that! My Dad (who is Irish) used to bring it back when he visited my grandparents, when I was a kid.Barry's is quite widely available (even my local poky, rural little Asda for local people has it) - but I gravitate towards Waitrose own-brand.
I looked at a mug of Yorkshire once, tentatively sniffed it - and decided I was better off being thirsty.
Due respect to those who like it, just not for me - not my cuppa tea.
Oh I get it now... It took me a few years but I finally got it.Main thing that 'mericans don't realise is that you need boiling water to make tea; not something that comes out of a hot-water jug.
