There’s no denying that a superior tea is marked by its freshness, flavor and quality and that the leaf is the source of these three elements. With loose tea, the whole leaf of the tea is preserved retaining its oil and zest whereas with tea bags the leaves are produced by machines which eventually leads to loss of flavor. Let’s study the difference in detail.
Whole leaf, high quality grade tea.
Produced in artisanal orthodox method
Structure & composition of the tea leaf is retained giving a rich & sumptuous flavor profile
Produced in small batches during specific season through traditional methods of handpicking & hand sorting high grade tea leaves
Packed in airtight containers to seal the freshness & aroma
High on antioxidants and low on caffeine
Since whole tea leaves do not come in a sachet, they can be disposed easily after usage & are completely biodegradable
Cut leaf, dust and fannings from broken tea leaves, low quality grade tea
Produced by machines in CTC (Crush – Tear – Curl) method
Leaves are broken rendering a dull and tasteless and one dimensional flavor profile
Produced in bulk by machines for mass consumption that can be stored for long period of time
Bagged in paper or other materials that can interfere with the flavor of the tea
High on caffeine and low on antioxidants
Tea bags generate a lot of waste i.e. the outer tea wrapper, the tea bag, the string and the staple
