Yorkshire Tea

Uncommon card · No. 191807

Yorkshire Tea is a black tea blend produced by the Bettys & Taylors Group since 1977. It became the best-selling tea brand in Britain in 2019. Charles Edward Taylor founded CE Taylor & Co. in 1886, later shortened to "Taylors". The company was purchased by 'Betty's Tea Rooms' in 1962, which today forms the Bettys & Taylors Group. Taylors of Harrogate is based in Harrogate, Yorkshire, in the first Betty's tea room. The group is owned by the family of Bettys' Swiss founder, Fredrick Belmont, and is currently chaired by Lesley Wild. The company is one of the few remaining family tea and coffee merchants in the country, whilst competing with the British-owned PG Tips (Lipton Teas and Infusions) and Tetley (Tata), where Yorkshire Tea is now the most purchased tea brand in the UK, overtaking Twinings (a division of Associated British Foods) and Typhoo.
