Ngokombiko we-UKTIA wokubalwa kwabantu betiye, itiye elithandwayo lama-Britons okufanele liphuzwe itiye elimnyama, cishe ingxenye yesine (22%) yengeza ubisi noma ushukela ngaphambi kokwengeza. izikhwama zetiyenamanzi ashisayo. Umbiko uveze ukuthi u-75% wabantu baseBrithani uphuza itiye elimnyama, linobisi noma ngaphandle kwalo, kodwa u-1% kuphela ophuza itiye lakudala eliqinile, elimnyama, elinoshukela. Kuyathakazelisa ukuthi u-7% walaba bantu wengeza ukhilimu etiyeni labo, futhi u-10% wengeza ubisi lwemifino. Okuthambile isethi yetiye kanye netiye elisanda kwenziwa lingenza abaphuza itiye bajabulele ukunambitheka kwetiye okuhlukile. UHall uthe, “Itiye langempela elivela esihlahleni setiye litshalwa emazweni angaphezu kuka-60 emhlabeni jikelele futhi lingacutshungulwa ngezindlela eziningi ukwenza itiye elimnyama, itiye eliluhlaza, itiye le-oolong, njll., konke ngesitshalo esisodwa. Ngakho-ke kunamakhulu ezinhlobo zetiye ongazinambitha.” Izinketho azigcini lapho. Izitshalo ezihlukahlukene ezingaba ngu-300 nezingxenye zezitshalo ezingaphezu kuka-400, kuhlanganise neziqu zamaqabunga, amagxolo, imbewu, izimbali noma izithelo, zingasetshenziswa etiyeni lemithi. I-Peppermint ne-chamomile bekuyitiye ethandwa kakhulu, kanti u-24% no-21% wabaphenduli bayiphuza okungenani kabili ngesonto, ngokulandelana.

Cishe ingxenye (48%) ibona amakhefu ekhofi njengekhefu elibalulekile, kanti u-47% uthi kuyabasiza ukuthi babuyele esimweni sabo. Abantu ababili kwabahlanu (44%) bazodla amabhisikidi netiye labo, bese kuthi u-29% wabaphuzi betiye bacwilise amabhisikidi etiyeni ukuze bagibele imizuzwana embalwa. Kusho uHholo. “Iningi labaphendula lalijwayele ukubhangqwa kwetiye le-Earl Grey nesidlo sasekuseni sesiNgisi, kodwa okwangaziwa kakhulu kwakuyitiye lase-Darjeeling nelase-Assam e-India, njengoba kwakunjalo ne-Japanese Gyokuro, i-Chinese Longjing noma itiye le-Oolong, elichazwe ngokuthi “itiye elidlulele”. Itiye le-Oolong livamise ukuvela eSifundazweni saseFujian saseChina nasesifundeni saseTaiwan saseChina. Kuyitiye elibiliswe kancane, kusukela etiyeni le-oolong eliluhlaza elinuka kamnandi eliphuma esikhwameni setiye kuya kwele-oolong elinsundu, leli lakamuva linokunambitheka okunamandla kanye nokunambitheka kwamadwala okuqinile. Kukhona iphitshisi nebhilikosi ngesikhathi esisodwa.”

Nakuba itiye liyisiphuzo esiqeda ukoma futhi liyindlela yokuzijabulisa, abantu baseBrithani banothando olujulile lwetiye, njengoba abaningi abaphendula ocwaningweni bephendukela ekubeni itiye lapho bezizwa bephansi futhi begodola. “Itiye ukugonaitiye pot, umngane othembekile futhi olalisayo…izinto eziningi ziyashintsha lapho sizinika isikhathi sokwenza itiye”.
