Taylor´s of Harrogate, Yorkshire Tea - 5x125g High Quality Black Tea Blend, Neutral, 22oz

Q: What does "blended for us water" mean, in the description of the product? what needs to be done to adapt to us water?

What it means is that this is not the British version. This is an "Americanized" version, formulated for US market tastebuds. I brew my teas with filtered water and the difference in taste between the UK and US versions is significant. If you want the real thing, this is not the product.

Q: what does it mean blended for US water?

It means it is blended for US palettes. US tea drinkers typically prefer a lighter version of UK blend. If you are looking for the UK version you will be disappointed.

Q: How does this tea compare in flavor to Irish or English breakfast tea? Also the leaves, are they larger or powdery and crushed? Thank you

Apple and oranges. I grew up drinking all kinds of teas. Picking a tea is like picking a wine. In other words, what’s the occasion? Breakfast, afternoon, etc. This is my hands down favorite in the morning. It has the color of weak coffee but with a very robust flavor. Give it a try.

Q: How is this packaged - 6 boxes of 40 bags or other?

This particular listing is packaged as 240 tea bags in a single large cardboard box as pictured. Taylor's also sells this tea in different sized boxes - I think I have bought bought boxes of 40 or 80 previously, but I can't recall for sure. Great tea, though.
