What is a Pyramid Tea Bag?
Pyramid Tea Bags’ history isn’t an especially long one. While Loose Tea is 5,000-years old and “traditional” Tea Bags date back to 1908, these innovative pockets only emerged at the end of the 20th century. Pyramid Tea Bags’ inventor was Brooke Bond, a UK company, who created them in 1997. The reason for their allure stemmed from their ability to allow up to 50% extra room while infusing.
The result was a Tea that tasted better in every possible way. It is no real surprise, then, that they have since become a trendy choice globally. Their appearance coincided with a huge surge in the Tea Bag industry. Since 2004, there has been a fifteen times growth in their sales and consumption, with Loose Leaf Pyramid Tea Bags, in particular, playing a considerable role.
