Frequently Asked Questions

Choosing the right black tea can be a flavorful adventure. Below are answers to common questions from customers who are new to loose leaf tea or looking to upgrade from bagged options.

Loose leaf tea is better than tea bags because it delivers a higher-quality, more flavorful cup. Here’s why:

  • Whole Leaves, Not Dust – Loose leaf tea contains larger, unbroken leaves that retain essential oils and full flavor. Tea bags often use crushed leaves or “fannings” (dust), which lose aroma and depth.
  • Better Steeping – With room to expand during brewing, loose leaves release more nuanced flavors and a smoother finish.
  • No Hidden Additives – Many bagged teas include artificial flavors or fillers; loose leaf is usually purer and more natural.
  • More Variety & Control – Loose leaf tea comes in more unique blends and allows you to control strength, steep time, and re-steeping.

In short, loose leaf tea offers a fresher, richer, and more customizable experience compared to typical store-bought tea bags.

Use 1–2 teaspoons of tea per 8 oz. cup. Steep in freshly boiled water (around 200°F) for 3–5 minutes, depending on the strength you prefer. Use a tea infuser, strainer, or teapot.

Yes, black tea contains moderate caffeine, generally 40–70mg per cup, depending on the variety and steep time. It’s a great morning or early afternoon option.

You can re-steep most high-quality loose leaf teas once or twice. While the second cup will be lighter, many enjoy the subtle variation in flavor.

Keep your tea in an airtight container, away from light, heat, and moisture. A cool pantry or cupboard works well to preserve freshness.
