Nexxxi 300 Pcs Disposable Tea Filter Bags, Unbleached Paper Tea Bag with Cotton Drawstring for Loose Leaf Tea and CoffeeSafe Strong Penetration(2.3" x 3.14")

I'm happy with the product, except that the drawstring is >not< cotton (as described).It may look like cotton, but it is some kind of synthetic fiber that melts when held near a flame.Cotton does not melt.

I have a love/hate relationship with this product.Pros:No messy cleanup.Can pre-fill to take some on the run with you.Liquid flows through nicely but holds grounds in great so brew is nice and strong.Cons:SYNTHETIC string...I placed a string on my burner to test...IT MELTED.Ever seen that little science experiment where you drape a paper towel strip from a full glass of water to an empty one, and the water draws up through the paper towel and drips into the empty cup until most of the water is transferred from one cup to the other? Well, same thing here. The liquid crawls up through the string like a wick and down the outside of your cup until you have a little pool on your counter, and we're just talking steeping time. I don't leave the baggies in my cup. (I found a great little product on Amazon called The Tea Buddy, that takes care of this problem).Like a little wood flavor with your coffee or tea? That's what you get with these; a nice wood flavor from the unbleached paper. The lighter your brew, the more noticeable the wood flavor is.Conclusion...I will continue ordering these until I find something better.

I buy an alternative coffee substitute made from figs, which is a fine grind. I typically use a Melita pour over filter, but the fig brew is too fine and doesn't allow the water to drain through the grinds well. I bought a french press, which worked well, but got tired of cleaning it. Purchased these tea bags and they work great! The size is just right too. I can now let my fig brew steep without the mess of the french press.

I have a garden full of mint, and I love mint tea. So instead of paying $3+ a box for 20 tea bags, I figured I could make my own. These are nice little drawstring bags and are easy to fill. Once done, just pull the strings and they close up. Easy!

Easy peasy for your loose leaf teas. No metallic taste from a metal tea ball, and no tea dust in your brew. I use these all the time and even gave them to my coworkers as gifts along with a bag of my favorite loose leaf tea.

I really like that they are natural. I use them for my herb teas (that I also make).

The string stays closed. Good quality bags.

These break and the herbs just float all over the cup.
