Yes, it's true - it has finally arrived.... Twinings Australian Afternoon Tea has hit supermarket shelves around the country! It's available in 10, 100 and loose leaf packs.
The fun isn't quite over though as we'd love to hear what you think of our new blend, so give it a try and then just 'Tell Us What You Think' for your Chance to WIN $5,000 cash!
If you want more chances to win and are interested in discussion about all things tea, join TwiningsAU on Facebook!
If your local store doesn't have the blend just yet, don't fear it sometimes just takes a bit of time to stock the shelves - so if you can't find it by the end of January either talk to your local store manager or Contact Us.
In case your memory is a little fuzzy, this is the first Twinings blend created with Australians for Australia. It really was a close race right to the finish line (back in 2011), but the blend voted as the winner was The Hon Kevin Rudd MP's blend and 10c from every pack sold will go to his charity, the RSPCA.
We want to say a big thank you to every one of you who supported our mission to find Australia’s own Afternoon tea blend.... the number of people who really got behind the competition was outstanding (and there were thousands of you!!!!) and helped make it as exciting as it was. We'd also like to thank our Top 5 blenders and their charities who were really great sports.
In case you're only just finding out about all of this now, our Top 5 Blenders were Alan Jones, Kerri-Anne & John Kennerley, John Williamson, Kevin Rudd and Layne Beachley. Not quite sure what this is all about? Let us fill you in with all the details of the Challenge.
