Why Whole Leaf Tea Tastes Different

If you've ever wondered why loose-leaf tea tastes so different from the bagged stuff, the answer is simple: surface area. A whole leaf unfurls slowly, releasing its oils and flavors in layers. A bagged tea leaf is broken into tiny pieces — all the flavor dumps out at once, then goes bitter.

Whole-leaf tea also steeps multiple times. The first cup is bright and fresh. The second is deeper, smoother. The third is mellow. Bagged tea? One cup, then it's done.

At Nevisan, we use only whole-leaf teas from our Golaghat garden. No blending, no additives, no masking. What you taste is what the leaf actually has to give.
