What Are Decaffeinated Teas?

All True Teas Contain Caffeine. Decaffeinated Teas Are Leaves From The Plant Camellia Sinensis That Have Had At Least 97.5% Of The Caffeine Removed. The Term “Decaffeinated” Is Different From “Caffeine Free.” Decaffeinated Refers To A Product That Originally Contained Caffeine (Like Camellia Sinensis) And Underwent A Process To Remove Most Of Its Caffeine Content. Caffeine-Free, On The Other Hand, Refers To A Product (Like Many Of Our Herbal Teas) That Never Contained Caffeine To Begin With. For Our Decaf Teas, We Exclusively Use The Carbon Dioxide (Co2) Method Of Decaffeination. We Believe This Is The Safest Form Of Decaffeination, And Retains The Greatest Flavor And Health Benefits.

Steeping Instructions

At Arbor Teas, We Believe Tea Should Be Brewed To Suit Your Personal Taste. We’Re Happy To Make Recommendations To Get You Started, But Don’T Hesitate To Experiment! When Brewing Your Tea, Your Main Considerations Are Tea Quantity, Water Temperature, And Steeping Time. We Recommend Green And White Teas To Be Steeped For 2 To 3 Minutes In Water Heated To Not-Quite-Boiling, Just As Bubbles Begin To Form On The Bottom Of The Pan (Approximately 170 To 180 Degrees F). For The Best Flavor, Use Fresh Water Whenever Possible. Try Not To Steep Your Tea Longer Than Necessary, As You’Ll Extract Undesirable Bitterness From The Leaves. If You Want A Stronger Brew, Don’T Steep Longer, Just Use More Tea. And Don’T Forget To Re-Steep Your Tea Leaves To Get The Most Out Of Your Leaf!
