At spice.boutique, we offer empty, self-fill teabags, manufactured from unbleached, plastic free and biodegradable corn fibre. Assembled and packed in Scotland, these all-natural teabags do not contain hazardous dioxins from the bleach used in typical teabags and allow you to conveniently brew your favourite loose leaf tea.

Our foldover corn fibre teabags are size 7.5 x 8 cm and are available in quantities of 50, 100, 200, 500 and 1,000.

Our self-fill teabags are easy to use. Simply fill the teabag with one heaped teaspoon of your favourite tea,fold over the corn fibre flap, and infuse the tea bag in boiling water. After preparing your lovely cup of tea to your own strength, dispose of the tea bag conveniently in any bin (be careful as it may be hot).

We also offer Corn Fibre Drawstring (6 x 8 cm / 9 x 13 cm Extra Large)  teabags, which are ideal for infusing in a cup or mug. You can find them plus many more eco-friendly products in our store!

Why should you try our product?

One simple premise - if we can convince you to fill a teabag with your own tea, we can take the plastic out of the whole process and we can make ALL our teabags BIODEGRADABLE.

All our teabags are HOME COMPOSTABLE, meaning that you can dispose of them safely in any bin and they will add ZERO TO LANDFILL.

By using our corn fibre teabags, you can help us to reduce the harmful dioxins in bleach seeping into our planet.
