Why loose leaf tea?
FLAVOR
Often times, tea in tea bags is torn so that the flavor will release more quickly and yield a stronger brew. However, this method causes the tea to lose some of its more subtle, pleasant flavors and turn bitter. Also, leaves that are brewed loose have room to expand in the brewing vessel, versus being stuck and crowded in a bag. This allows the loose leaf to truly release all its wonderful complex flavor...and unfurling leaves look beautiful!
INFUSIONS
A tea bag, unless it is filled with whole leaves, is only good for 1-2 infusions because all the flavor is released at once when it's brewed. Loose leaf tea can last much longer than this, in some cases up to 8+ infusions. Not only does the tea last longer, the flavor changes across infusions and adds to the complexity and unique qualities of each individual tea. You may drink a tea that starts out very smoky and in the third infusion starts tasting like chocolate and in the fifth infusion releases spicy notes. What a wonderful adventure it is to try a new good quality tea!
