Are the bags for this tea filled with "processing dust" or choice leaves? I tried calling and writing several times for an answer. There is no custo

while I cant say for sure the package says it is organtic tea leaves. and I love the taste and brews up clear so hard for me to believe that it has the dust rather than leaves.

I'm sorry. This is the first notification I have received that there was a question. I've tried a lot of different tea's and find uncle lee's the one I prefer. I like the taste although I must admit I tend to mix teas (multiple bags). I have been well pleased with uncle lee's.

Haven't purchased any lately, but the few bags I have gotten in the past were always wonderful. Sorry to hear you're having a bad experience, I am sure they will replace them for you if you contact the seller thru Amazon in a timely manner.

i have an open top mesh strainer that i plop into almost boiling water.if you are interested in quality teas, you need away to deal with loose leaves. of course, you can just dump tea in water, then strain it this is worth the effort as even davidsons is far better than tea bags.personally, i prefer yamamotoyama as tea is important to me. do follow directions. too long a brew ruins greens.

I haven't had any problems with the tea. It lasts for months, and months in it's sealed bags. We keep ours in airtight containers. Hope this helps.

At least on my set, there is no leaf filter. It's only set up for making tea from tea bags

Hi, they are square bags in "twos" much like the way other teas are packaged. You just pull apart the tea bags and pop one in your cup. Enjoy!

The flowers are very dry and brittle, not chewy at all until boiled in water. Then they are chewy. The tea produced is delicious. The dry tea stores well and does not seem to midew. Good luck.

I would suggest calling customer service on this issue. I have been using the flowering tea and I have not had an issue with uncurling flowers and the tea is not extremely dark but very delicious. My favorite is the Vanilla. I could only assume that something may be wrong with the flowers you received. If you call they may suggest you return what you have and they can replenish the batch you received.

Yes, I use mine for loose tea all the time. The holes are quite small, and I have not had any significant problems with dust in my tea.

No nothing on the package. The bags are about 1-1/4 inches square. The tea is finely chopped inside that is all I can tell you

I would use 3 tea bags. But please! Venture into loose tea, you will love it!

These bags are made of food grade nylon (nylon 6 or nylon 6,6). They are BPA free and bleach is not involved in the production process. Food grade nylon is among the safer plastics one can use in terms of stability. Any risk of leaching, and none has been demonstrated, would likely occur above the glass transition temperature (116.6 deg F for nylon 6). The issue has not been extensively studied but it's generally assumed to be safe, whatever thats worth. It's not an answer but nylon is used in many tea bags and this is what any study would relate to since the tea market is still much larger than the nut milk bag market. If you are especialy concerned keep it under 116.6 deg f and it should be perfectly safe.

I have used powdered nettle leaves and ginger in mine. It does keep most - but not all -- in the bag. Not enough was loose to interfere with enjoying the 'tea'. The bags do not come with ties/strings, so you may want to provide an alternative for the really fine herbs. I use simple cotton thread from my sewing kit. For traditional teas, I have no issue without ties.

Sorry, I do not know about that although I do love this tea even although it is a little dusty.

I had the same experience, a lot of my bags were bad, as if you were brewing cardboard. Very strange, never had a problem. Out of the 2 boxes ( 2 x 240 bags) one of them had mostly bad bags. I had to smell them before throwing it in my mug

The bags are vacuum sealed, so they are very dense. Once opened it is apparent that the PB2 is a powder. I suggest opening it first to see. I think if you open it and it is still as hard as a rock, you'd be able to send it back.

Nespresso does not offer tea options. There are a few refillable nespresso type cups but I doubt they will produce a good quality tea beverage if filled with tea leaves.
