Loose Leaf Tea Company The Tea Spot Announces Retail Availability of Brewlux® Tea Filter
Boulder, CO (PRWEB) July 31, 2013 -- The Tea Spot announces today a new consumer product for making loose leaf tea easy. The Brewlux® Breakroom Set features the Brewlux® tea filter, designed for steeping premium tea in to-go cups. This business-oriented breakroom set includes ten reusable and recyclable Brewlux® loose leaf tea filters, ten 16 oz. Seda® insulated to-go cups, and ten recyclable lids. The set retails for $14.95 and is available at The Tea Spot’s online tea store, http://theteaspot.com. The Brewlux® Breakroom Set provides a convenient solution for making and drinking loose leaf tea on-the-go or in an office kitchen environment.
Brewlux® is a sustainable and recyclable to-go tea filter made from annually renewable plants. This large-volume infuser allows tea leaves ample room to open to their full flavor and aroma potential. Its durable structure allows tea leaves to be re-infused multiple times, adding to the premium tea experience. Unlike paper filters, the elevated position of Brewlux® in the cup helps users avoid making oversteeped bitter tea, as the water level drops below the filter while drinking. This feature also allows users to keep the Brewlux® filter in the cup while drinking thus avoiding messy drips, which is especially helpful while driving. Brewlux® was awarded Best Innovation at the World Tea Expo. The product was commercialized with assistance from the USDA NIFA’s Small Business Innovation Research Grant program. Brewlux® is U.S. Patent Pending, and is manufactured in the U.S. from a renewable plant-based resin that is GMO-free and BPA-free.
Design features of the Brewlux® leaf tea filter include:
• Large-volume and rigid form, allowing tea leaves more room to infuse than in bags
• Standard size for 16-oz. to-go cups and commonly-used to-go lids
• Fast & easy method to prepare loose leaf tea
• Tab for easy removal from a cup without contact with hot water/beverage
• Elevated position in the cup avoids oversteeping of tea leaves
• Offset position allows user to add sweetener or cream to beverage and stir
• Reusability: allows tea leaves to be re-steeped & maintains shape with dishwashing
The Brewlux® recyclable loose tea filter has only been available for wholesale prior to today’s launch of the Brewlux® Breakroom Set. The Brewlux® is used for loose leaf tea service in many premium tea and coffee shops, as well as foodservice establishments in the U.S. and internationally.
The Tea Spot’s CMO Jessica Kochik commented on today’s launch of the Brewlux® Breakroom Set: “As tea grows in popularity as the beverage of choice for many Americans throughout the workday, the demand for premium options is also increasing. Brewlux® meets this need by blending premium with convenience to improve the to-go tea experience. We’re excited to launch this breakroom set which will allow businesses an easy and affordable way to offer their employees premium loose leaf tea in company kitchens and breakrooms.”
