Merging the convenience of modern-day tea bags with the exquisite quality of loose-leaf tea, our Tea Discs are a testament to luxury, innovation, and sustainability. But what exactly is a Tea Disc, and why should it be your next tea obsession? Let us take you on a journey into the world of iLOLA’s Tea Discs, where tradition meets innovation for an unparalleled tea experience.
The Evolution of Tea: From Loose-Leaf to Tea Discs
Tea has a rich history that spans thousands of years, originating in ancient China and spreading across the globe to become the world's most popular beverage. Traditionally, tea was brewed using whole, loose leaves, which allowed the leaves to fully unfurl and release their intricate flavors. However, with the advent of the tea bag in the early 20th century, tea drinking became more convenient, but often at the cost of quality. Tea bags typically contain lower-grade tea dust or fannings, leading to a less robust flavor and a compromised tea experience.Enter the iLOLA Tea Disc—a revolutionary solution that combines the best of both worlds. The Tea Disc brings the convenience of a tea bag, but with the luxurious experience of loose-leaf tea. Made from whole, premium tea leaves that are carefully compressed into a compact disc shape, iLOLA Tea Discs ensure that you never have to choose between convenience and quality again.
What is a Tea Disc?
A Tea Disc is a meticulously crafted, single-serving disc made from the highest quality loose-leaf tea. Each disc is designed to offer a full-bodied, flavorful infusion while maintaining the elegance and complexity of traditional loose-leaf tea. Our Tea Discs are bound using natural, biodegradable cellulose, making them not only convenient but also environmentally friendly.The process of creating a Tea Disc begins with selecting the finest tea leaves, which are carefully sourced from renowned tea gardens around the world. These leaves are then gently steamed and compressed into discs, locking in their delicate flavors and aromas. The result is a tea experience that is as visually pleasing as it is delicious.
