Loose Leaf Green Tea is a purist’s choice—a tea that stays close to its origins. Instead of being chopped into dust and stuffed into paper sachets, the leaves remain whole or partially broken, allowing their natural character to shine through. The result? a fuller-bodied flavor, a more expressive aroma, and an intentional brewing experience.
This kind of tea doesn’t cut corners. The leaves have room to unfurl, release their oils, and develop a complexity you won’t find in mass-produced alternatives. It’s a small difference with a big impact that turns a daily cup into a daily ritual.
For us, loose leaf green tea is more than a product. It’s a reflection of craft, choice, and quality. Every Revival blend is made to give you an experience that doesn’t just fill your cup—it elevates it.
Benefits Of Loose Leaf Green Tea
Loose Leaf Green Tea isn’t just a beverage—it’s an experience rooted in quality, care, and authenticity. There are clear reasons why many choose loose leaf green tea as a mindful part of their daily routine. Let’s explore the value behind this choice:
Higher Quality Leaves, Better Brewing
Loose leaf green tea uses whole or minimally broken leaves with more natural oils and nuanced flavors. Unlike the tea dust in most bags, these intact leaves release richer aromas and tastes. That quality difference also means a more satisfying cup, from the first steep to the last.
Fewer Additives, More Clarity
Because loose leaf teas are often minimally processed, they typically don’t require the preservatives or added flavorings that some mass-market teas rely on. You’re brewing real ingredients, not artificial extras. It’s a straightforward way to enjoy green tea for what it truly is.
A Thoughtful, Intentional Ritual
Preparing loose leaf tea is more than dropping a bag in water—it's a deliberate process. Measuring, steeping, and savoring each cup encourages mindfulness and connection. That small ritual can offer a meaningful pause in a busy day.
A Fresh Alternative To The Everyday Routine
Loose leaf green tea offers a refreshing shift from the fast, flavorless brews you may be used to. It introduces variety, craftsmanship, and a sense of discovery into something as simple as making tea. It’s a small but impactful upgrade to your daily habits.
How To Brew Loose Leaf Green Tea Like A Pro
Brewing loose leaf green tea isn’t complicated—it’s about doing a few things right. The payoff? A bold, balanced cup is far more rewarding than anything from a tea bag. Here’s how to make the most of your steep:
- Start with the Right Ratio: Use one teaspoon of loose leaf green tea for every 8 ounces of water. This gives you a balanced brew—not too weak, not too strong. You can adjust to taste, but this is a reliable starting point for getting the most out of your leaves.
- Watch the Water Temperature: Loose leaf green tea is delicate; boiling water can burn the leaves and make the flavor bitter. Aim for a temperature between 170°F to 185°F for optimal extraction. If you don’t have a thermometer, just let boiled water sit for a minute before pouring.
- Steep with Intention: Green tea usually needs 2 to 3 minutes to steep. Longer isn’t always better—oversteeping can make it too astringent. Set a timer if needed, and you’ll consistently land a smooth, flavorful cup.
- Choose the Right Tools: A simple tea infuser or mesh strainer works perfectly for most blends. Make sure the leaves have room to expand as they steep—cramped space limits their flavor potential. A roomy infuser or teapot makes all the difference.
