Tiesta Tea Loose Leaf Filters for Brewing | Disposable Infuser for Hot & Iced Drinks | Easy-Fill Steeper | Unbleached Paper | Single-Cup Infuser for Loose Leaves | 100 Empty Bags

Oh brave new world of tea brewing! I learned about this from a Facebook group that often discusses tea, and the best way to prepare tea. If you are a tea purist and require the ceremony of teapot and cozy and all that, then these handy little bags will probably not be for you (you probably know that, however). But if you are often in a hurry (like me), and get annoyed at cleaning out the mesh filters (as I do), then you might enjoy this convenient option. Since the bags are unbleached, you can just pop the whole thing into your compost bucket after your tea. This makes the whole loose tea project so much more do-able.

This is my second or third box of these do-it-yourself tea bags, basically you fill with loose tea to suit your preference as to type and strength, fold over the top, put it in your cup or mug, pour suitably hot water over it, and let the magic of fresh, hot tea happen. I used to get these at my local supermarket but when it stopped carrying them, I was pleased to source them on Amazon. Much easier to use than a metal tea ball or filter. My only quibble with them is getting the top to remain closed. Sometimes I staple the bag shut, mostly I use a binder clip to clip the bag to the side of the mug. My experience is that if the top isn’t somehow secured, the tea leaves will find a way to get out. The convenience of the bags outweighs any negatives for me.

Nice and roomy for extra tea leaves. Good quality. Paper is thin but strong so it doesn’t tear. Much thinner than using a coffee filter which is messier and can leak while removing unless you’re careful (ask me how I know!). There is no aftertaste at all. No micro plastics to worry about. Will purchase again.

Unfortunately, there is no closure on these bags. Hard to keep the tea from coming out!

These didn't work for my intended purpose of making and taking my own tea when traveling. They don't seal. HOWEVER they work very well for sprouting seeds!!! A couple of tablespoons of dirt, lightly mist, and BOOM! Lettuce, zinnia, spinach, impatients... I'm ready for Spring!!

I really love these. I make probably 5-8 cups of tea a day, always loose leaf. And I get tired of constantly rinsing clean my tea strainer, so I use these disposable bags from time to time. The bags give the tea a decent amount of space to unfold while brewing, so overall, I don’t think I’m losing much flavor compared to a traditional strainer set up. A+ for convenience

I LOVE tea. I drink Tiesta loose leaf tea every single day actually. Hot in cool months, iced in warm. I absolutely adore the self brewing cup I purchased years ago [Teami] for on-the-go and the pour over from Tiesta for home. However, in sharing my sheer joy of drinking tea with workmates, I had a challenge, until now! I picked up these clever little tea bags, without much hope honestly, and brought them to work. I put them next to my electric tea kettle and 6 cans of Tiesta. At the start of our weekly meeting, I gave a quick intro/invite/demo to the team. To my surprise, the bag stayed closed on its own until brewing was over, bag did not fall apart, tea flavor did not change to paper-yuck, and the steep time was speedy! By the end of the week, these cute little bags could be seen floating in mugs all around the building. I've created fellow tea monsters!! I'm now purchasing extra for home for jugs of sun tea. Excellent item.

Great product, I’ve purchased before, but the packaging at Amazon is getting sloppy. Box was smashed.
