Best Answer

There is no general answer to this question; it varies hugely from tea to tea.

Most tea bags contain fannings or broken-leaf tea. Some (particularly low-end tea bags) contain dust. Broken-leaf tea consists of larger pieces than fannings, which in turn are larger particles than dust.

However, there are some tea bags, especially the higher-quality one often marketed as sachets or pyramid bags, which contain whole-leaf tea or large pieces of broken-leaf tea.

The grade of tea used is sometimes advertised on the container. For example, orange pekoe and pekoe are two grades of tea commonly used in some teabags. These grading systems are typically only used for black tea, not for green tea or oolongs.
