What does "blended for us water" mean, in the description of the product? what needs to be done to adapt to us water?

What it means is that this is not the British version. This is an "Americanized" version, formulated for US market tastebuds. I brew my teas with filtered water and the difference in taste between the UK and US versions is significant. If you want the real thing, this is not the product.

what does it mean blended for US water?

It means it is blended for US palettes. US tea drinkers typically prefer a lighter version of UK blend. If you are looking for the UK version you will be disappointed.

How does this tea compare in flavor to Irish or English breakfast tea? Also the leaves, are they larger or powdery and crushed? Thank you

Apple and oranges. I grew up drinking all kinds of teas. Picking a tea is like picking a wine. In other words, what’s the occasion? Breakfast, afternoon, etc. This is my hands down favorite in the morning. It has the color of weak coffee but with a very robust flavor. Give it a try.

How is this packaged - 6 boxes of 40 bags or other?

This particular listing is packaged as 240 tea bags in a single large cardboard box as pictured. Taylor's also sells this tea in different sized boxes - I think I have bought bought boxes of 40 or 80 previously, but I can't recall for sure. Great tea, though.

GIVE THE SPIFFING BRIT A SPONSORSHIP DEAL

The Spiffing Brit convinced me that Yorkshire Tea is the only beverage worth consuming! I literally had no idea that your product existed. Until The Spiffing Brit bombarded me with his English propaganda. Now I can proudly say that the only thing English in my household is the tea.You owe The Spiffing Brit, the only good brit, a sponsorship deal. I doubt very seriously that I'm the only person he's convinced to try your amazing product.It is strong in both strength and flavor. I drink it black, maybe one sugar.

A Nice Cup of Tea

If you are a tea lover like myself, you will enjoy this brand and blend. I prefer a nice strong bold cup of tea and this fits the bill. Have been purchasing this brand for at least a decade.

A Superb Tea for Adding Cream

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I chose this tea based on recommendations from associates in the UK. Between the gold and the red, I prefer the red because the flavor holds up better with added cream.

Fantastic Tea

Arguably one of the best black teas I’ve ever had. I enjoy the tea daily and sometimes have two to three cups in a day. Highly recommend for any tea drinker.

Hearty flavorful black tea

My one and only "go to" Tea 3 times a day for the past 20 years. Introduced to me in Capetown but very happy its available here in the states. The "Gold" is good as well but I prefer this hearty flavorful blend. Only wish it was available at restaurants.
