Default Tea bags that rot down in compost

I've just spread the contents of the compost bin on my vegetable garden
and find that the Typhoo tea bags that were put into the compost haven't
rotted down.
Can anyone recommend a tea bag that will rot down in the compost.
Typhoo tea bags seem to leave a fine plastic net behind them.


Surely you buy tea based on the quality of the tea and not the bag they
put it in?
