The "Tea Time" brand teas have been missing almost everywhere for more than 2 months. Have they been discontinued? Or when will they be available again? Most of the varieties were very good and reasonably priced.

Question for Migipedia: We also miss the FANTASTIC ORANGE from Teatime. It was our absolute favorite tea. We drank it every day. Is there any chance that this blend will be available again under the M-Budget label?
Hello rosty, thank you very much for your message. We are very sorry that you miss the Tea Time Fantastic Orange tea. We have discontinued it - I have informed those responsible about your wish to be able to buy it again under M-Budget. Kind regards, Angela

I can only agree with your wish. We also sorely miss Fantastic Orange.

Hello Occo13, thank you for your comments. We no longer offer Tea Time Fantastic Orange and have not introduced a 1:1 alternative. We have passed on your request to bring the tea back to the shelves to the people responsible. Kind regards, Angela
Dear Angela from Infoline Thank you for your reply. There is a glimmer of hope that Fantastic Orange will be back in the range. As you can see from the articles, there are quite a few consumers who miss the tasty tea.

Hello Infoline This M-Budget fruit tea is not at all a substitute for the orange tea from Tea Time! It looks different (red-brown instead of orange) because the main ingredients are hibiscus and rosehip instead of apples and orange peel. And logically, it also tastes completely different. Dear Infoline, this is what I call "taking people for fools"! We therefore expect an adjustment to the recipe. We drink a lot of tea (infusion) from Migros. The M-Budget line tastes less good than Tea Time and is therefore not a successful substitute. It's also annoying when Migros withdraws a popular product from circulation without notice and the staff in my Migros branch have no idea about it.
Hi Occo13, thank you very much for your message. We regret that we were not able to convince you with the M-Budget fruit tea. There is no successor to Tea Time Fantastic Orange - in other words, this product has effectively been discontinued. There is currently no 1:1 alternative. Before the changeover in the tea sector, we had two fruit teas in our range, each with the name "Tea Time The Original" and "Tea Time Fruit Tea". These two products had minimal differences in terms of content, so we decided to focus on one variety when revising the range. The successor product is therefore the M-Budget fruit tea. We have of course informed the relevant specialist department of your feedback, especially as you really like the orange-flavoured tea. We are sorry not to have more positive news for you at the moment. Kind regards, Lea

So what Migros can and will do is still up to them. the sound still plays the music. Migros has said that there is no more orange because the 2 teas were similar. They didn't say they were the same. That's why there's MB herbal tea, which was not available from Tea Time. I find it strange for our society when we sometimes attack each other here because of certain products, sometimes really choosing a form of communication that hardly belongs on a forum like this.
Everyone was polite here in the thread, just let Migros speak for itself and don't accuse people of having a bad tone, nobody was abusive. No need to play policeman here😉 Migros has meanwhile replied objectively, that's the right way to do it.

Dear Lea from Infoline It seems that you are missing the point: "Before the changeover in the tea range, we had two fruit teas in our range, each with the name "Tea Time The Original" and "Tea Time Fruit Tea". These two products had minimal differences in terms of content, so we decided to focus on one variety when revising the range. The successor product is therefore M-Budget fruit tea." As you can see from the customer reactions in this chat, we didn't like the two previous fruit teas from Tea Time and now the new one, "merged" from Tea Time and running under MBudget, just as little. We would like this new fruit tea blend from MBudget to be replaced by Fantastic Orange, i.e. the tea blend to be adapted accordingly. And then please provide information on the shelf in the store and in the Migros magazine.

It would be great if Tea Time Fantastic Original (not Fantastic Berries) were to return... This has been my and my mom's standard drink in fall and winter for several years. Also chilled in summer as iced tea. We loved it very much...

Hi rambler, thank you very much for your inquiry. We regret that you can no longer find your favorite tea in our stores. We have indeed discontinued the "Tea Time" brand and revised the packaging concept. The teas have now been assigned to the "M-Budget" brand and are available in the classic M-Budget packaging design. Our aim with this change is to improve the recognizability and price range structure on the shelves for our customers. The items are expected to be available in Migros stores from calendar week 41. Kind regards, Lea
In the case of articles that change packaging or line (M-Budget), it would be desirable if Migros also made this known to its customers. After all, it collects enough information with the cumulus system to know who has bought the teas regularly in the past. I also missed the Tea Time teas.

Hello mybluefish, thank you for your message. We regret that you can no longer find your favorite tea variety in our stores ☹. In fact, there is no successor to Tea Time Fantastic Orange - in other words, this item has effectively been discontinued. There is currently no 1:1 alternative. We're sorry not to have more positive news for you. We have of course informed the responsible department about your feedback on how to communicate product changes better. Kind regards, Lea

Unfortunately, the fruit tea of the new M Budget line corresponds to the former fruit tea and not to the fantastic orange (note also that the content of a tea bag contains only 1.75 g and no longer 2 g of tea).
