Teablets! The taste of real tea, minus the bag? ‘No mess, no waste’
Next we headed to the Expo floor and spoke to Zilla Tabs, the company behind Teablets, which are formed with a patented high pressure process that compresses chopped tea leaves (not extracts) into tablets you can drop into boiling water for a cup of tea.
It’s not instant/soluble tea, so the tablet doesn’t dissolve, but the tea sinks to the bottom of the cup.
The company can manufacture them as a private label product for other tea brands and supply them as individually wrapped tablets for restaurants, airlines, and hotels, but is also selling them under its own brand to retailers and online in ‘kitchen-ready’ tins with 40 Teablets each.
