Why choose to buy boxed tea?
Tea professionals and enthusiasts know that for preserving the plants and their aromas, nothing beats loose-leaf tea. Unlike its bagged counterpart, loose-leaf tea contains whole leaves, which can fully unfurl once steeped in hot water. In terms of taste, this method guarantees a much more complex and flavorful beverage than industrial tea bags, which often contain only broken leaves.
This technique ensures aimproved aroma reproductiontea, but it also allows you toto keep it intact for longerWhile it is possible to store loose leaf tea in airtight paper bags, the individual box solution remains the most optimal in the long term: it prevents moisture, light and odors from damaging the leaves inside.
From an environmental perspective, choosing a reusable box also proves to be more advantageous.than airtight tea bags. Even if these are of good quality, they cannot preserve the quality of the tea leaves as well, and above all, they can only be used once or twice.
