Default Tea bags that rot down in compost

I think most civilised people drink loose leaf tea in Bodum glass
infusers. Better for the palate and better for the garden.
Sadly it is becoming steadily more difficult to find loose leaf tea
in supermarkets.


Bodum glass infusers? Preposterous continonckalry! When it's just me, I
use a traditional cheap and lovable little brown teapot: I'm a lazy
bloke, but I enjoy the little ritual. Tea bags won't do for me, as I
take neither sugar nor milk, so I want it too weak for most people.
Tesco's Finest leaf tea is pretty good, by the way.
