It used to be the case that loose tea was made from the better-quality leaves and tea bags from the smaller pieces, but as now about 90% of tea is sold in bags, it's no longer the case.

I can't tell you if one brand is 'better' than another, but generally the more you pay, the better the quality. After that, it's a matter of personal taste.

I had tried both Lipton and Dilmah and find the latter wins my choice due to the followings:

1) When you open a new box of Lipton tea, there is no tea fragrance but Dilmah is a yes.

2) When the tea is brewed, the colour of the tea from Lipton is unnturally dark but Dilmah is red and crystally clear.

3) When the tea cools down, Lipton does not give out any tea fragrance but Dilmah yes

4) Smelling directly on the teaabg, Lipton does not have any fragrant tea leaf smell while Dilmah is pure and has fragrance

5) Come to know that Lipton is mixed tea leaves while Dilmah is pure one-type tea leaves



Those who chosen Lipton above are not wrong because they are used to English Breakfast Tea which is also a mixture of two types of tea. However is compare Lipton to Twinings, Twinings is better.



So if you are looking for pure cylon tea then Dilmah would be a better choice, go for at least the Premium Ceylon which is at affordable consumer price.

Tea leaves are little better than dust and so It IS down to your preference.

Me , I prefer Liptons.
