The bag contains organic green tea (image courtesy of ABC).

The current record is held by an English company for a tea bag weighing over 120 kilograms but Mr Condon is waiting for official confirmation they have beaten it.
He added: "It would make about 100,000 cups of tea, but we don't have a cup big enough to make one big cup."

The creation is over three metres (image courtesy of ABC).
