The brand also drew the ire of shoppers at the beginning of the year, when fans took to social media to complain that its newly biodegradable pyramid teabags broke apart too easily.

At the time, owner Lipton Teas & Infusions said the decision was under review, but the products – which made up less than 1% of its UK portfolio – have not returned to shelves since. In April, PG Tips confirmed it had pulled its instant tea granules line after changes to manufacturing negatively affected their taste. Leaf tea is designed for freshbrew vending systems. The leaf tea we supply at Vending Superstore comes in impressive 1kg bags. Each bag is able to get as many as 400 cups at a gram throw of 22.5g for each 200ml cup (7oz vending size). Freshbrew machines differ from other systems as they use leaf tea rather than granules to deliver a tasty, crisp cup of tea each and every time. If you have a freshbrew machine, leaf tea is ideal. PG Tips has discontinued its instant tea granules after changes to manufacturing negatively affected their taste.

It’s hard to believe there isn’t a demand for this; all the vending machines that use it and all the loyal customers that for years bought it,” they said.

Following changes at a manufacturing level, our PureTea Granules, which account for less than 1% of our total portfolio, no longer hit the high taste standards our consumers know and love,” said Liam McNamara,UK&I general manager at PG Tips brand owner Lipton Teas & Infusions. Here at Vending Superstore, we are huge fans of a good cup of tea. Whether you’re sitting down with your feet up after a long day or just waking up, nothing can beat the perfect brew. In a customer service message, the brand said it was “working extremely hard to fix the problems” with the biodegradable bags, having made “huge improvements at our factory in Manchester”. As a result, the product had been temporarily pulled as PG Tips took “some time out to review our options”, McNamara added.

One disgruntled shopper said the prices being paid showed PG Tips had made a mis-step in putting the line out to pasture.PG Tips also faced ire from consumers earlier this year over complaints its newly biodegradable pyramid teabags broke apart too easily.
