Loose tea

Buy loose tea?

Loose tea is often referred to as fresh tea. It comprises large dried tea leaves that you place in a filter tray or bag and mix with hot water. Loose tea contains more antioxidants and tends to have little to no artificial additives. Additionally, many find it much tastier. Since you can brew many cups from a small amount of tea, loose tea can be much more economical in many cases!

To make loose tea, you'll need empty tea bags or a stainless steel tea filter or strainer. Generally, you'll use about 2 to 3 grams of loose tea per cup with an infusion time of roughly 5 minutes. Of course, this varies depending on the type of tea and your personal preference. We recommend starting with that amount and then adjusting the amount of tea and infusion time to suit your own taste.

What is the difference between loose fresh tea and tea in bags?

There's a clear difference between fresh loose tea and tea in bags. While tea in bags generally consists of ground tea leaves and dust, loose tea leaves are made from whole, unbroken tea leaves. This results in a tea with a fuller flavour and higher quality. Loose tea leaves also have more room to expand during brewing, enhancing both flavour and aroma.

Ordering loose tea also provides more flexibility when brewing. You can adjust the quantity of tea leaves according to the number of cups you want to enjoy and the desired strength of the tea. A tea infuser is handy to place the tea leaves in and allow them to steep in hot water for the desired time.
