Choosing The Right Tea Bag: A Complete Guide For Tea Lovers

Here at Cup of Tea, we have a vast array of tea bags to choose from. If you’re new to the world of luxury tea you might not know how to begin, so let’s take a look at the different varieties and their uses.

In this blog, we take a look at our luxurious tea bags from one of our leading brands, Althaus, which provides three different varieties. 

Why choose Althaus tea bags?

Althaus offers a unique experience for tea lovers, which makes their products a wonderful Christmas gift for anyone passionate about having a brew. Whether you are a casual tea drinker or a connoisseur, Althaus has a tea bag to suit every preference. Let’s take a closer look at their different varieties.

Exploring the three types of Althaus tea bags

1. Deli Pack Tea Bags

Firstly, there’s the Deli Pack, which is designed to be highly convenient. These tea bags are individually wrapped, so are ideal for making tea the classic way. 

Each Deli Pack contains finely cut tea leaves, which are specially selected and processed to deliver a well-rounded and rich flavour. Unlike many standard tea bags found in supermarkets, the Deli Pack never compromises on quality despite its smaller size.

These tea bags offer various benefits, one of which is the fact they’re so convenient. They can be used everywhere from offices and cafes to on-the-go. 

Choose these tea bags and you’ll enjoy a consistently superior flavour and strength everytime. You won’t have to worry about fussing around with loose leaves. 

2. Pyra Pack Tea Bags

Want to have a premium tea-drinking experience? The Pyra Pack from Althaus is the way to go. These pyramid-shaped tea bags contain the finest quality, loose-leaf tea. It’s a much better alternative to finely-cut tea leaves in standard bags. 

The pyramid shape means that tea leaves can expand fully, releasing more flavour and aroma than traditional flat tea bags.

Pyra Pack tea bags are perfect for those who appreciate the rich flavours of loose-leaf tea but prefer the convenience of tea bags. It’s an ideal choice when you want to enjoy a special cup of tea at home or in the office.

3. Grand Pack Tea Bags

Do you often brew a teapot for multiple servings? If you love sharing tea, these types of tea bags are the way to go. They’re wonderful for sharing time with family and friends. 

They contain a generous amount of loose-leaf tea, ensuring a robust and full-bodied infusion even when brewed in a larger teapot. The quality of tea used in the Grand Pack is on par with that found in the Pyra Pack, offering an exquisite loose-leaf tea experience in a convenient bag.

These are the right tea bags if you are a teapot lover. They’re designed to make it easy to brew larger qualities, so are also great for cafes and restaurants. 

If you’re someone who struggles with loose leaves and using strainers, you won’t have to worry with the Grand Pack. They offer the same high quality flavour of loose leaves, but without the fuss. 

How to choose the right Althaus tea bag

Have a think about your preferred method of tea preparation, how many cups you typically make on a daily basis, and your taste preferences. 

You might also want to consider the occasion. If you want a single cup of tea for a quick break or while on the go, the Deli Pack is the most convenient option. It provides consistent quality without any fuss.

For a more indulgent single-cup experience, the Pyra Pack offers the richness of loose-leaf tea in a handy bag. It’s perfect for when you have a little more time to appreciate the complex flavours.

If you’re making tea for several people or wish to brew a pot, the Grand Pack is the ideal choice. It’s designed for teapots, ensuring enough tea for multiple cups while still delivering a high-quality experience.

Exceptional quality of taste.

Whichever tea leaves you choose, Althaus provides you with a first-class experience. Better yet, their tea bags are much better for the environment. Both the Pyra Pack and Grand Pack contain bags which are made with biodegradable materials.

Finding the right tea bags for work.

Many of us rely on hot drinks to keep us going through the day.

If you have a busy career and are often on the go, the Deli Pack is the right choice for you. 

However, if you prefer a richer experience without the hassle of brewing loose-leaf tea directly, you would likely appreciate the Pyra Pack.

If you frequently entertain guests or have a ritual of enjoying tea throughout the day, the Grand Pack is guaranteed to be popular with all your staff.
