PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Black Tea Dust is the finest particle grade of black tea, produced from the smallest broken pieces of tea leaves during the processing of higher grades like Orange Pekoe and Broken Orange Pekoe. Despite its very fine texture, Dust grade tea delivers a very strong, brisk flavor and deep color, making it the most popular choice for tea bags and instant tea extraction. Its quick infusion properties make it highly suitable for mass-market consumption where consistency, strength, and cost efficiency are essential.
