Why Choose Loose Leaf?

Quality

Loose leaf tea is generally considered to be of higher quality than tea bags. It consists of whole or partially broken tea leaves, which retain more essential oils, flavors, and aromas. Tea bags, on the other hand, often contain fannings or dust, which are smaller, lower-grade tea particles.

Flavour

Loose leaf tea provides a more nuanced and robust flavor profile. The whole leaves have more space to unfurl and infuse properly, allowing the flavors to develop fully. Tea bags, with their limited space, can restrict the tea leaves’ expansion and result in a weaker or more one-dimensional taste.

Aroma

Loose leaf teas tend to offer a more aromatic experience. The essential oils present in the larger tea leaves are better retained, leading to richer and more fragrant aromas. Tea bags may limit the release of these oils, reducing the overall aroma.

Variety

Loose leaf tea provides a wider range of options compared to tea bags. Loose tea is available in numerous varieties, including single-origin teas, rare blends, and herbal infusions. This allows you to explore different flavours and experiment with various tea types.

Customisation

Loose leaf tea allows for greater customisation in terms of brewing strength and technique. Since you have control over the amount of tea you use and the steeping time, you can tailor the flavour and strength to your preference. Tea bags often offer a standardised brewing process, leaving less room for personalisation.

Sustainability

Loose leaf tea is generally considered more environmentally friendly than tea bags. Many tea bags are made with paper or plastic materials, which may not be easily recyclable. Loose tea, on the other hand, often comes in packaging that is more sustainable. The tea itself is compostable and makes great fertilizer for your garden.

Ritual and aesthetics

Brewing loose leaf tea can be a more engaging and aesthetically pleasing process. Using infusers, teapots, or other tea accessories can enhance the overall experience, making it a ritual of its own.
