For years, I’ve heard people banging on about the merits of loose-leaf tea versus tea bags and I thought to myself - surely there’s better things to talk about.
It turns out there isn’t! Loose tea is so much better than bagged and I want to tell the world - I can’t believe it’s taken me this long to listen to people.
Not only is it better quality tea but it’s better value. Loose-leaf tea is one of the few arenas in the world that delivers much higher quality at a much lower cost. What’s more, you use a lot less tea per serving and you don’t have to worry about disposing the tea bag.
The whole teapot ritual is also very calming but the main reason to drink loose tea is the taste. At the moment I’m partial to Barry’s Classic Blend but the Lyons loose range is also good.
You’re probably thinking that it can’t taste all that different but it does - go ahead and try.
What’s your favourite tea brand and who wins - loose tea or tea bag?
