So I emailed the UK customer rep, and we get the SAME TEA, just less strength.
Disclaimer, I either had a really good batch or quality control is lacking for everyone else, but below is what they emailed me about this discrepancy: "This box as with all Yorkshire tea regardless of location is the very same blend of tea however the amount of tea in these tea bags in this box is slightly less to suit a different market so yes there will be a taste difference when drinking a lighter tea bag. We do slightly adjust tea bag weight according to the market tea is sold to cater for taste, traditional Yorkshire Tea as we enjoy here in the UK can be too strong so we alter this to make it more enjoyable. Obviously anyone who has enjoyed our tea here in the UK then back home will perhaps notice a difference. I hope this explains things and if you want the full strength tea bag in the US then make sure you choose a box that is not the string and tag one." PS: I personally had no problem with this tea, since, I use two bags and add sugar and milk to make a sweetish milk tea. It explains why it's probably the perfect cup, since I assume 2 bags is worth 1 or 1.5 of a UK non-stringed tea bag.
