Decaffeinated Earl Grey Tea

Our Decaffeinated Earl Grey starts out with an excellent decaffeinated Ceylon to which the natural oil of bergamot is added, giving it the classic Earl Grey flavor. This is a nice medium-bodied tea that has a nice aroma. A very popular decaf that is naturally decaffeinated with CO2. Use one teaspoon per cup and steep 3 minutes in freshly boiled water.

Our decaffeinated teas are naturally decaffeinated using a process that removes caffeine without using chemicals of any sort. The freshly plucked tea leaves are briefly soaked in water and gently flushed with carbon dioxide (CO2). The CO2 binds to the caffeine molecules and extracts them from the tea, leaving behind all the natural proteins that give tea its flavor. It also leaves many of the polyphenols and antioxidants intact, so it's still good for you.
