what's loose leaf tea
Loose leaf tea is a tea lover's delight, offering a premium and flavorful alternative to traditional tea bags. But what exactly is loose leaf tea, and why is it so special?
-
Definition: Loose leaf tea refers to tea leaves that are sold loose, rather than in pre-packaged tea bags. These leaves are whole or partially broken and are typically larger and more expansive than the finely ground tea found in tea bags.
-
Quality: One of the most significant advantages of loose leaf tea is its quality. Because the leaves are less processed and can expand fully during steeping, they retain more essential oils, flavors, and aroma compared to tea bags. This results in a richer, more nuanced cup of tea.
For example one of our best sellers: Smoked Bourbon Caramel is a complex and bold black tea, gently sweet and smoky.
-
Flavor Variety: Loose leaf tea comes in a wide range of varieties, including black, green, white, oolong, and herbal teas, each offering its unique flavor profile and health benefits. From robust and malty black teas to delicate and floral white teas, there's a loose leaf tea to suit every taste preference.
-
Brewing Experience: Brewing loose leaf tea is an experience in itself. With loose leaves, you have the freedom to customize your tea-to-water ratio, steeping time, and brewing method to achieve the perfect cup.
