Lakeland Semi-Skimmed Milk Pots (240)

Date Received: 8th December 2025 Date of Expiry on the products: 7th June 2026 Length of Expiration - 6 months To me, that is sufficient length of duration and very happy with the order received and the quality of the products received. The milk content I received is perfectly fine, there were also no foul taste, it was still fresh. Even long expirations, you still need to taste test it and make sure, especially if you are either consuming it or offering milk to someone's cup of tea/coffee. The size of the product received was exactly as advertised, so thank you. I also had to count and make sure the package is not tampered, etc. Everything was perfectly fine. I uploaded photos to help people figure out to themselves if this a product is for them or not. I received all 50 units, so that is good to know. It's expensive, and knowing that I received the correct amount of quantity as ordered is more appreciative, so thank you. I also read other people's reviews, my product received was perfectly fine and have no issues with it. When people were referring to the tear, actually, it is the design of the product, it's not really teared, it's there to help people with lack of strength to easily tear open, when actually the entire satchets are all fully sealed. So if you see a "Tear" or "Tear Here", you will see a zig zag tear to help people with weak hands/muscles to find wear to easily tear the product. It's intuitive, and it's common to see with these milk satchets. I had these when I stayed at business conferences, hotels where they offered the pot alternatives. I thought it was a smart way to store and drink tea with the convienence of milk in travelability. In terms of the taste, I do not see any difference to how it is offered in hotel accomodations. So if your hotel rooms offer daily refreshments of tea and biscuits, I would say the tea is identical to that. However, if you are tea lover like I am, and prefer the milk you buy at a store, then yeah, it's completely different milk but isn't significant to semi-skimmed milk. I much prefer the blue version, full skimmed and full fat milk, but doesn't matter as much. It does the job. If you do receive it, I recommend storing it in cool and dry temperature. It's fine to leave it at room temperature, but if you're an overthinker, you can store it in the fridge if you really want to keep its longevity? Though I bought enough to last week me for a few weeks, so thankful for the seller providing 6 months. Seeing buyers receiving shorter duration but never quantified the duration made me think, it was actually 1 month expiration, which 1 month isn't a long time. So knowing that beforehand would intend influence and help buyers make their purchase decision. Not an issue, but it was interesting to receive it in an transparent bag that with wrapped up like you ordered a grocery. Fortunately, no tamper from any external or handling parties, so that's fine. See photos if it helps see what my experience was. I used 2 satchets for my tea, so it's a strong tea flavor which I like. If you like your tea milky, then add more than 2 satches for the desired tea color and flavor. Thanks. Today is Day 2 of receiving the product and I have used 5 satchets out of 50 and no issues. If I do encounter any issues with the remaining 45 satchets, I will update my review accordingly to reflect it appropriately. In the meantime, I'm very happy, so thank you.

These are fantastic and a definite 5-star product for office use. I love the long shelf life, which means I don't have to worry about running out of fresh milk or wasting a large carton. They store at room temperature and each pot is the perfect portion for a single cup of tea. The milk itself tastes great in hot drinks you can tell it's UHT. The packaging is easy to open. Highly recommended for the sheer ease and reliability!

I really like these sachets. Good quality milk, no underlying UHT taste, really handy for travel and the campervan. The batch I received has a shelf life of three months, longer would have been nicer.

Great, I order these regularly. Really easy to use, I personally keep them in the fridge just so that they keep a little fresher for longer. Great value for money. I use these for my clients at a salon, they’re the perfect size.

Keeps fresher than a carton

Great when going away. You need to be aware of the use by date.

Good value and very handy

Lakeland Dairies produce this product with a 7 month shelf life. The sachets I received today have a shelf life of 3 months - obviously old stock! What I thought would be a good value purchase taking me into at least March 2026 is sadly not.

Die Kaffeesahne ist einwandfrei und schnell geliefert worden.

Cumple con lo esperado. Buena calidad y muy cómoda para tener en la oficina y añadir al café de la máquina

Product was exactly what I was looking for. Excellent milk for tea or coffee. The only problem was that I received 120 milk sticks with a best before date one week after I received them.
