Green Tea

Is loose green tea healthier than tea bags?

Green tea is rich in antioxidants and beneficial polyphenols. We highly recommend drinking handcrafted, loose leaf green tea rather than industrially processed green tea bags. Not only to do tea bags use precious resources for a single use, but they also use industrial chemicals in their manufacturing, and bleaches, glues and often nano plastics.

With loose leaf green tea, you are just infusing pure tea leaves in your cup, not paper, or plastics or chemicals.

Why drink green tea?

There are many health benefits to drinking green tea. Drinking green tea is linked to lower rates of cardiovascular disease, strokes, and Type 2 diabetes.

The best loose leaf green tea is also delicious. It doesn't have to be a bitter brew for virtuous people. You don't have to hold your nose to drink it. Please look beyond the industrial bags for tea that's crafted by experts to be the most delicious expression of the leaf possible. Good green tea will flood your life with pleasure.

Just as a cheap industrial wine might not be as delicious as a beautifully crafted tea from a vineyard, the same is true for green tea. Buy green tea for quality rather than low price and you will be well rewarded in flavour.
