Tea Description |
Green tea fannings, or at least green tea broken leaf(not dust grade), is actually preferred in some places of the world and has a flavor profile of its own, mostly used for teabags, it generally makes a strong brew. When it comes to Japanese teas, like Bancha, kukicha, aracha, konacha, and other steamed green teas. Konacha (pictured in link below) is a good analogue to this whole idea of fannings that is common in the west.
In the tea industry, tea leaf grading is the process of evaluating products based on the quality and condition of the tea leaves themselves. Broken-leaf teas, fannings and dust orthodox teas have slightly different grades.
Fannings and dusts are considered the lowest grades of tea, separated from broken-leaf teas which have larger pieces of the leaves. However, the fannings of expensive teas can still be more expensive and more flavorful than whole leaves of cheaper teas.
Because of the small size of the particles, a tea infuser is typically used to brew tea fannings. Fannings are also typically used in most tea bags, although some companies sell tea bags containing whole-leaf tea.
This is a perfect green tea for getting your daily dose of "greens." This fannings grade produces a smooth and flavorful cup instantly. Value-priced for everyday consumption and chosen for its pleasing character, this tea is an excellent choice for the green tea enthusiast on a budget.
