Loose tea

by Vonnelor » Nov 1st, '19, 06:29

After being off the stuff for years, The Lady Wife announced last week that she fancied a cup of "proper" tea again, so I dutifully returned home from the shops with a box of PG Tips Loose Tea. Which to our surprise is sort of crumbs, or granules, as opposed to tea leaves.

Is it supposed to be like that, and if it is, what's that about? What happened to proper loose tea?

I don't even know that Loose tea is, it will be better if somebody adds information about it.

Loose tea is tea that is simply not packaged in a teabag.

I'm enjoying a mix of Rooibos Ginger Lemon and Rooibos Peach!

Though it as tea with less or almost no teabag

Loose tea is tea with no teabag at all :) You typically brew it in some sort of infuser, gaiwan, teapot, etc
