    News flash, tea isn't very popular outside Britain, and this isn't a british forum, so yeah...

    Considering at the lower end of things a box of 240 costs £6 and at the higher mass produced end a box of 100 costs £7-10 - I imagine a subscription model that would work would have to be closer a maximum of £10 a month, and even then, I wouldn't use it.

    Tea is something people get with their weekly shops if and when they need it, it's not something (I imagine) that could offer a viable "subscription" which is why you don't see this offered as a service.

    At best, you could try and provide companies with a supply for the office kitchen?

    What?

    It's one of the most consumed if not one of the most popular drinks in the world...

    And that's OUTSIDE of the U.K.

    i wouldn't, i buy my tea when i go food shopping, and even then it isn't every time, it is maybe £3 every month and a half i guess, a subscription does not seem worth the hassle nor the cost

    This pretty much. I drink maybe 1 or 2 cups a day and I just buy it at the store when I finished it.

    The only tea I drink is sleepy time tea, forget the brand, but it's nice and makes me feel warm.

    I don't drink tea that often, so I wouldn't pay monthly for something I hardly drink

    Also most of the tea drinking population are in poor country and those can always be ignored in any meaningful matter.

    I do drink tea quite frequently. But almost never black tea. Therefore my main question would be what kind of tea will u get. Assuming that it would fit my taste, the actual amount of tea I need each month would justify a 9$ subscription at most, a bit more if the tea you get is really fancy in a way that u can't buy it easily. Which probably would be the only reason I would actually consider getting one.

    The office I work at has an unlimited free supply of Tea and Coffee. After work I don't tend to drink anymore. Also a subscription for Tea just sounds silly.

    Not sure why you would want something like this on a subscription purpose though, I always thought that those things are like gym memberships. People sign up and think it's good for a month then forget to cancel the DD and keep paying.

    That sounds highly impractical. Either the business or customer would be getting boned by the extra shipping costs.

    I like how you enjoy adding such restrictions after making a blanket statement, and dismissing Turkey, Mongolia, Russia, Thailand, Morocco, China, Iran, and Indonesia as insignificant...

    Welp, enjoy ignorance

    And food for thought, Tea is the most widely consumed drink after water.

    Depends on amount and quality and more importantly, variety and ability to costumize. I dont drink that much tea albeit the tea i like is rather pricey, cup or two a day and due to wanting to keep my body sensitive to caffeine for when i need it, i mostly drink infusions, not tea so i would suggest expanding the catalog to include herbals.

    You kidding? Tea is probably most consumed drink in the world, coffee trails miles behind.

    Is this "tea" as in food, like in Britain, or is this tea, as in the leaves that are used to make a drink? If it's "tea" as in food, such as lunch I suppose, then I wouldn't mind paying a subscription to get a lunch every day. If it's tea as in the drink, 0€ thanks. I don't drink it.
