Triangle tea bags? Does it really matter?
Yes, triangle tea bags matter because not only do you get a better quality tea, you also get a better infusion.
 Let me explain how this is.
In a triangular tea bag, there is more space than in a round or square tea bag. That means that actual tea leaves and buds can be put into the tea bag. And because there is more space, the tea leaves and tea buds can infuse properly when you pour the hot water on the tea bag.
These kinds of tea bags are becoming more and more popular every day because of the added quality that they give.
Inside the round and square tea bags, you will find very, very, very small pieces of the tea leaves. Those are the fragments of the tea leaves that are left after they have been dried, as some of the tea leaves do break a little during the drying process.
You might be asking yourself what I mean when I say actual tea leaves, right?
Does that sound like quality tea to you? It doesn't to me.
When you look at the description of tea and what the tea leaves, buds, etc., are like, they are talking about actual tea leaves and tea buds. And that's what you don't have in those square and round tea bags.
Of course, the tea companies could put the whole leaf and the bud inside the square and round tea bags, but those tea bags don't have enough space to be able to allow your tea to be properly infused.
Now, if you just want to drink tea and don't really mind the square/round tea bags vs. the triangle tea bags, then don't worry about it. But for those of you who do want to get the most benefits out of tea, triangle tea bags are the way to go nowadays.
