About this Product
Decaffeination removes around 98% of the caffeine from tea leaves and is not to be confused with “caffeine free”.
While in the past other techniques have been employed, 3 are commercially used for tea. Of the currently used methods of decaffeination we support the carbon dioxide (CO2) method for our decaffeinated teas. We feel that this is the safest form of decaffeination, while retaining the greatest flavour compared with the use of organic solvents – which leave behind a residue in the tea. Tea decaffeinated using the CO2 method retains 92% of its polyphenols (which are antioxidants) compared to tea decaffeinated using the ethyl acetate process, which only retains around 18%.
