Gosh, it’s as if a pretty, decorative foil pouch can’t transform stale herbs, spices, and sour fruit wrapped in a bleached paper bag into something tangy, flavorful and fragrantly delicious!
100% agree on Bigelow. And I used to like Constant comment until I found Marketspice Original blend. I don’t usually like artificial flavors but this one is special
I’ve always had that problem with the teabags from Bigelow… every single one I ever tried left the tea tasting like cardboard.
I am afraid that some companies are selling old and stale ingredients in the tea bags. Lipton for instance.
But I had also a many good experience with tea bags — as I am using them in the office. Lovaré is one of them or Basilur close behind.
@Martin, to be fair, I’m sure a lot of tea does its aging in supermarkets where volume is low until the old stock is put on clearance. When I’ve bought teabags mail order from a dealer, they are typically great (except for when they use fannings and dust for bags!) Either way, I’m guilty of letting excellent tea die a slow death in my cupboard. Lately I’ve gotten ruthless and added a lot of stale leaf to my compost pile. Of course, the pu-erh is supposed to improve with age, and I do have controlled environments with humidity pouches for them! But not every puer does improve, and I admit that many folks find great pleasure from very young sheng!
I had a properly aged tencha last year that was amazing.
