Hi strange question but husband made me!  In U.K. at the moment stocking up on Yorkshire tea. We’re coming to camposol in august for a month to look at properties. I told him after 6 boxes went in trolly ‘I think we’ll get it easier in Spain than France’ ! Am I right (life won’t be worth living if I’m wrong and he doesn’t get more 😂 TIA

Yorkshire tea is sold in The Food Company (Tesco) in Mazarron as well as lots of English items. Bring your check book though.. the prices are sky high!!

Yes those are available here at the English Food Co in Puerto de Mazarron and prices are on a par with those of PG Tips which I happened to take a picture of last week on "Special Offer" at €9.50 for a 160 bag box (50% extra free). 

This was a particularly "Special Offer" as the previous time we saw them, they were €8.95!

So advice - bring a truck load of Yorkshire Tea before you come - lol

I thought one of the reasons to take a foreign holiday was to sample the customs, foods and drinks of that country, rather than taking England with you?

Not on holiday we live in France thinking of moving to Spain. Hard to get Yorkshire tea in France. I thought it may be easier in Spain

We moved from France to Spain 5 years ago and the selection of English food here is far greater than in France. My OH is a tea drinker and life would not be worth living if he didn’t have frequent cups of Yorkshire. Not gad any problem, so far.
