INFORMATION:
All of our decafs are processed using the Co2 Process. The advantage of this decaffeination process is that no chemical solvents are used to remove the caffeine. Also, using the naturally occurring Co2 in a circulation process which carefully uses high pressure and temperature to extract the caffeine, the origin distinct character of the tea is retained in the cup. There is a slight change in the character of the tea due to the process but the end result is an uncompromising cup of tea with no chemical overtones.
This blend uses high grown Ceylon tea as the base for decaf tea for several reasons: High grown Ceylon has the character to create a flavory and satisfying tea. Most importantly, high grown Ceylons retain their character under Co2 decaffeination processes much better than other teas we have tested.
