Since January 2022, there has a growing trend in cafes and restaurants globally, including Ireland, to offer loose leaf tea instead of traditional tea bags. This shift was largely due to the increasing demand for higher-quality and more flavorful tea options among consumers who are becoming more health-conscious and interested in premium tea experiences.

Loose leaf tea offers several advantages over tea bags, including:

• Better quality: Loose leaf tea is often considered to be of higher quality compared to tea bags as it typically consists of whole or larger tea leaves, which can result in a more flavorful and aromatic brew.

• Variety and customization: Loose leaf teas come in various types, blends, and flavors, allowing cafes to offer a more extensive selection to cater to diverse consumer preferences. Additionally, customers can often customize their tea by adjusting the quantity and steeping time.

• Sustainability: Some consumers prefer loose leaf tea due to its reduced packaging and waste compared to individually wrapped tea bags, contributing to sustainability efforts.
