Why Loose Tea?

The loose tea allows the flavour of the tea to come out, giving your brewed tea more depth of flavour. Our English breakfast loose tea also has large leaves so no dust like in teabags, only tea leaves that are full of flavour.   

It’s important to allow the tea leaves time to unfurl and release their flavour, we suggest infusing in boiling water for around 3 minutes.
