Choose an exact 80-bag decaf box if the bag count matters to your cupboard planning, but check the tea style and net weight before comparing packs: Tesco listed 80-bag Tetley and Yorkshire packs at 250g and Twinings English Breakfast Decaffeinated at 218g. For grocery delivery, check the final basket and your substitution setting so a different count or blend does not arrive unexpectedly.
Who is an 80-bag decaf box for?
Households switching from regular tea
An everyday decaf black tea keeps the familiar bagged-tea format. If evening drinking is the reason for switching, choose by the blend you want rather than assuming every decaf tea tastes alike. Yorkshire Tea positions its Decaf range for bedtime drinking.
Shoppers planning cupboard space
An exact 80-bag count is useful when a smaller or larger box would disrupt your usual restock. Check the selected variant in the basket: the same brand may appear in several pack sizes.
Shoppers comparing pack quantities
Bag count alone does not show how much tea is in a box. Tesco listed exact-80 packs at both 218g and 250g, so compare net weight and the displayed unit price among blends you would actually choose.
What should you check before ordering?
Choose the decaf tea style and acceptable bag count first; then compare pack weight and the delivery choices shown in your basket.
| Priority | What to check | Your needs |
| Exact bag count |
Read the selected variant and confirm 80 bags. Check that the title says decaf and names the tea style you want. |
I plan around an 80-bag box, so a similar-looking 70- or 160-bag listing would not do. Tesco listed PG Tips Decaf in those other sizes. |
| Pack comparison |
Compare net weight and the live unit price on the same weight basis, such as per 100g or per kg. Check whether any displayed offer applies to your basket. |
If two boxes both contain 80 bags, I still want to know how much tea each contains. Tesco listed 250g Tetley and Yorkshire packs and a 218g Twinings English Breakfast pack. |
| Delivery substitutions |
Review the final basket and substitution setting. Decide whether a different brand, blend or bag count would be acceptable. |
When the exact tea matters, I would rather set my substitution preference deliberately than discover a different box at delivery. Tesco says it offers an alternative when substitutions are allowed and one is available. |
| Caffeine information |
Confirm the decaf designation on the delivered pack. If a specific caffeine amount matters, check the product information rather than treating “decaf” as a measurement. |
I want to consider caffeine from everything I drink, not assume that a decaf label gives me a product-specific amount. NHS pregnancy guidance sets a limit for total daily caffeine, including caffeine from tea. |
Common ordering mistakes
-
Comparing boxes by bag count alone
Tesco listed 80-bag Tetley and Yorkshire packs at 250g, while its 80-bag Twinings English Breakfast pack was 218g. An equal count does not mean an equal net weight.
Settle on a tea style you would use, then compare the live unit prices on the same weight basis.
-
Picking the right brand in the wrong size
A brand name or product image may lead to a different pack size. Tesco listed PG Tips Decaf in 70- and 160-bag formats.
Read the full title and selected bag count in the basket before paying.
-
Allowing a substitution you would not use
A replacement tea could differ in blend, brand or count. Tesco says an alternative may be offered if you have allowed substitutions and one is available.
Set your preference according to which changes you would accept, and inspect any substitute at delivery.
-
Treating “decaf” as a caffeine figure
A decaf label does not tell you the amount of caffeine in a prepared cup. NHS pregnancy guidance addresses caffeine from all daily sources, including tea.
Check the delivered pack for product-specific information if the amount matters to your decision.
Brand and tea-style references
These references help distinguish blends and pack formats; a brand’s inclusion here does not establish what will be available for your delivery.
Yorkshire Tea
Tesco listed Yorkshire Decaffeinated as an 80-bag, 250g pack.
- An exact-80 everyday black-tea option.
- Yorkshire Tea’s description of its blend retaining its character is the brand’s own taste claim, not an independent comparison.
Tetley
Tesco listed Tetley Decaffeinated in an 80-bag, 250g pack; a Joybuy listing also identifies an 80-bag, 250g decaf product.
- Check the 80-bag variant when an exact count is important.
- Do not rely on a brand-level description to identify the bag count of every Tetley decaf pack.
PG Tips
Tesco listed PG Tips Decaf in 70- and 160-bag formats.
- A decaf black-tea option when the bag count is flexible.
- Those listed variants do not meet an exact 80-bag requirement.
Twinings
Tesco listed Twinings English Breakfast Decaffeinated as 80 bags at 218g.
- Names English Breakfast as well as meeting the 80-bag count.
- Its listed net weight differs from the 250g Tetley and Yorkshire exact-80 packs.
Clipper
Joybuy lists Clipper Organic Fairtrade Decaf Everyday as 80 bags at 277g.
- The listing describes organic and Fairtrade tea in plastic-free, unbleached bags.
- If those listed attributes determine your choice, check them on the delivered pack.
Tesco
Tesco search results identified its own-label Decaff Original Tea as an 80-pack, 250g option.
- An own-label format to check when shopping in a Tesco grocery basket.
- Confirm the current listing, selected variant and substitution preference before ordering.

Questions about 80-bag decaf tea
Are two 80-bag boxes directly comparable?
Not by bag count alone. Tesco listed 80-bag Tetley and Yorkshire decaf packs at 250g and an 80-bag Twinings English Breakfast Decaffeinated pack at 218g. Choose a tea style you want, then compare net weight and the displayed unit price.
Does PG Tips Decaf meet an exact 80-bag requirement?
The Tesco listings identified PG Tips Decaf in 70- and 160-bag formats, not as an exact 80-bag box. If you are flexible about count, check the size of the variant in your live basket.
What if my tea is unavailable for Tesco delivery?
Tesco says it may offer a suitable alternative if you have allowed substitutions and one is available. Set that preference according to whether you would accept a different decaf blend, brand or bag count, and check any substitute at delivery.
Does decaf tea settle caffeine questions during pregnancy?
No. NHS pregnancy guidance says not to have more than 200mg of caffeine a day and identifies tea as one possible source. A decaf label is not a product-specific caffeine measurement, so check the pack information if you need that detail.
