Twinings Australian Afternoon tea is NOT an Australian product

Depending on product and branding, some do trade on their Australian identity and place of origin. Nerada Tea being one.

The branding of Australian Afternoon Tea represents one extreme, which is permitted. The extent to which it might be Australian is ambiguous due to tea being often labelled by style. Note there is no product of Australia logo or similar on the packaging.

At the other extreme (good) we have products locally such as Maleny Dairies Milk and Maleny Cheese. Both of these products have the raw material sourced from the surrounding district/districts and processing on site.

Unfortunately the name even for Aussie Milk products is no assurance of the source of the raw milk or the location of the processor. There is a community topic built around product identity and source.
