Answers KNOWN to : 10, 14
Answers guessed at: 3 - china, 9 - teabags, 12 - proctor & gamble?!
4 - total volume or per capita?

Not a huge tea fan, nor UK hits of the '70's!

Weird question for @classic33: as I don't generally don't touch the stuff, why would I only drink it at around 03.15 in the morning, around 3 or 5 times per annum?

Early riser, drink before getting on your bike in the colder weather.
4 would be per capita.
 
Cool answer; very close. Mid way thru (FNRttC), not at the start, still not very palatable. Crap tea is more drinkable than crap coffee for me!

4 - probably somehwere unexpectedly weird, like france.
