    This. Most retail teabags are made with “fannings” which is basically the dust left after they’ve made the actual proper tea. It’s cheap and brews very fast so it has mass market appeal but it tastes accordingly. Quality loose leaf tea is amazing and the flavour difference is huge. It doesn’t immediately get that burnt tannin flavour like fannings do.
