Loose Tea NUNO

Loose Tea NUNO is a professional solution for cafés, restaurants and hotels that want to offer high-quality tea with controlled portion costs. The NUNO brand’s range of loose tea varieties allows for a diverse tea menu — from classic black and green tea to fruit and herbal blends. Loose tea is more economical than tea bags, allows precise dosing of the amount of tea for each cup size, and ensures better flavour release as the tea leaves freely unfurl in hot water.

Advantages compared to tea bags

Loose tea is a more economical solution for high-demand HoReCa businesses for several reasons. Portion costs are lower — large-volume packaging and precise dosing allow for controlled usage. Loose tea offers better aroma and flavour, as the tea leaves freely unfurl and release all flavour nuances. The variety of loose tea options is broader than in tea bag format — you can offer more special varieties with a unique character. Loose tea is more environmentally friendly — there is no individual packaging for each bag. These factors together make loose tea a sensible professional choice for any café or restaurant that values quality.

NUNO brand varieties

NUNO offers a wide range of loose tea varieties designed for HoReCa needs. Black teas — classic Assam, Ceylon and blend varieties, suitable for everyday café use with high demand. Green teas — Chinese and Japanese origin varieties with different oxidation levels and flavour profiles. Fruit and herbal blends — caffeine-free, with various spices and fruit additions, suitable for a wide customer base. Special varieties — rooibos, masala chai and other blends that create a unique and recognisable tea menu. Each variety’s packaging is designed for convenient storage and dosing. NUNO teas are available in various volumes, suitable for both small and large businesses with different tea demands.

Preparation and serving

Proper preparation of loose tea requires appropriate equipment and knowledge. Tea filters or tea strainers are necessary for preparing each cup. The correct water temperature is important for optimal infusion of each type of tea — black tea 95–100°C, green tea — 75–85°C, fruit and herbal blends — around 95°C. Infusion time varies depending on the variety: black tea usually 3–5 minutes, green tea — 2–3 minutes. The amount of tea per cup is typically 2–3 grams, but precise dosing depends on the variety and desired intensity. The BHS range also includes tea accessories — filters, strainers and other items for professional tea serving.

Creating a tea menu

Loose tea allows cafés and restaurants to create a diverse tea menu that attracts customers and increases the average bill. A wide range of varieties enables seasonal teas, special blends or themed tea menus according to the restaurant’s concept. In hotels, tea menu diversity is one of the service quality markers — from morning breakfast to evening relaxation, tea is a popular beverage. In cafés and patisseries, a refined tea menu with loose tea can become a competitive advantage compared to a simple tea bag offering. NUNO loose tea allows for a premium tea experience at reasonable portion costs, improving business profitability.
