Fannings
Fannings are small particles of ground-up tea leaves used as a base in tea blends or instant teas. They are the remains of larger tea leaves that have been processed into finer particles, increasing surface area for flavor and aroma. Fannings are typically more affordable and are often used in tea bags because they brew quickly and produce a strong, robust flavor. Despite being considered of lower quality than whole leaf teas, they are valued for their efficiency and consistency, making them popular in commercial tea products and quick brewing applications.
