Loose Leaf Tea

What is Loose Leaf Tea?

Loose leaf tea is the purest way to enjoy tea, offering a richer flavour and aroma compared to standard tea bags. Unlike bagged tea , which often contains broken leaves or dust, loose leaf tea consists of whole or partially broken leaves that unfurl fully when brewed. This allows for better infusion, bringing out the natural complexity of each variety—whether it's a robust black tea, a delicate white tea, or a refreshing green tea.

Sourced from renowned tea-growing regions like China, India, Japan, and Sri Lanka, loose leaf tea reflects centuries of craftsmanship and tradition . Whether you’re looking for a moment of relaxation or a boost of energy, there's a loose leaf tea suited to your taste and needs.

Why Choose Loose Leaf Over Tea Bags?

Loose leaf tea offers a superior drinking experience. The larger tea leaves retain essential oils and natural compounds , ensuring a more nuanced taste and aroma . Tea bags, on the other hand, often contain finely ground tea that brews quickly but lacks depth of flavour.

In addition to taste, loose leaf tea is a more sustainable choice . Many tea bags contain plastic or are bleached, making them less environmentally friendly. By choosing loose leaf tea, you reduce waste and enjoy a more authentic, high-quality brew.

Black, Green, White, and Oolong: A Tea for Every Taste

Tea lovers can explore a vast selection of loose leaf options, each with distinct characteristics:

• Black Tea: Bold and full-bodied, black tea is rich in flavour with malty, smoky, or fruity notes. Black tea is a great morning pick-me-up, especially varieties like Assam or Earl Grey.
• Green Tea: Fresh and vegetal, green tea is packed with antioxidants. Whether green tea is a grassy Japanese Sencha or a nutty Chinese Dragon Well, this tea is known for its health benefits.
• White Tea: The most delicate of all teas, white tea is minimally processed and has a light, floral taste. Silver Needle and White Peony are popular choices.
• Oolong Tea: A halfway point between black and green tea, oolong offers a complex profile with floral, creamy, or roasted notes. Perfect for those who enjoy a more layered tea experience.

Herbal and Flavoured Loose Leaf Teas

Beyond traditional teas, herbal and flavoured blends provide a world of caffeine-free and naturally infused options. Chamomile , rooibos , and peppermint teas are excellent for relaxation, while fruity blends like hibiscus and berry teas offer a refreshing alternative.

For those who enjoy a bit of indulgence, flavoured loose leaf teas combine high-quality tea leaves with ingredients like vanilla, cinnamon, citrus peels, or rose petals. These blends offer a unique twist on classic tea, perfect for those looking to experiment with new tastes.
