Gourmet Tea in Disposable Bags, a convenient solution from Adagio Teas

Adagio Teas introduces a line of gourmet teabags that combine the superior flavour of loose tea with the convenience of a disposable bag.  The trade-off between quality and convenience, the dichotomy that the tea world has faced for over a century, has been resolved, Adagio makes it easy to enjoy both.

These new bags have a unique pyramid shape, providing ample room for the expansion of the large leaves that typically characterise gourmet tea.  This is in sharp contrast to the typical teabag, which contains what the industry terms “dust”, the least expensive tea grade.  As such, ordinary teabags yield a dark colour, but little in a way of taste – a far cry from an abundance of flavour found in Adagio´s new product.  The bags are packaged in boxes of 15, retailing at £5.99.

The teabag is an American invention born of seredipity in 1904.  A tea merchant, looking to save on the cost of mailing samples to clients, switched the packaging from metal to silk.  Soon he was inundated with more requests for similarly packaged samples.  Fortuitously, his clients mistook his cost-saving measure and steeped the tea in the silk pouches.  Thus the teabag was born.

Adagio Teas was founded in 1999 with the aim of providing consumers with unmatched quality and variety of teas.  It has become the most popular destination for tea online.  Its products are now available online at www.adagio.uk.com in gourmet and health food stores.
