Tea & Trumpets USDA Organic Decaffeinated Green Loose Leaf Tea is a light, nutty Darjeeling green tea decaffeinated with CO2 for 98% caffeine reduction while preserving its delicate flavor.
Harvested at high altitudes in Darjeeling, India, this 4 oz loose leaf green tea is certified USDA Organic and decaffeinated using a carbon dioxide rinse that removes caffeine with minimal impact on aroma and antioxidants. Packaged in small batches and sealed in a food-grade, foil-lined resealable pouch, the leaves arrive fresh and ready for customized brewing. Because it’s loose leaf, you control leaf quantity, water temperature, and steep time to dial in the cup you prefer.
How does this decaffeination method affect flavor?
The carbon dioxide rinse used on these Darjeeling leaves is a gentle, solvent-free process that targets caffeine molecules while leaving most volatile compounds intact. That means a cup that retains the bright, grassy and lightly nutty notes characteristic of high-elevation green tea without the typical caffeine level.
- CO2 decaffeination minimizes flavor loss compared with harsher solvent methods
- Preserves many antioxidants and aromatic compounds
- Results in roughly 98% caffeine removal for a milder stimulant effect
What’s the best way to brew this loose leaf green tea?
To avoid bitterness and excessive tannins, use water below boiling and a short steep time. Start with about 1 teaspoon per 8 oz water, heat water to roughly 170–180°F (75–82°C), steep 1.5–3 minutes, and adjust to taste for strength and body.
- Use cooler water (170–180°F) to reduce astringency
- Short steep times (1.5–3 minutes) preserve delicate flavor
- Try multiple short infusions—many Darjeeling leaves yield two light brews
Why choose loose leaf and what freshness measures are included?
Loose leaf tea gives larger, higher-quality leaves space to unfurl, creating fuller flavor and more consistent extraction than most tea bags. Tea & Trumpets makes small-batch runs and seals the tea in foil-lined, resealable food-grade bags to lock in aroma and extend shelf life.
- Larger leaves provide cleaner, less bitter cups than fannings or dust
- Small-batch production reduces stale inventory and maintains freshness
- Foil-lined resealable packaging protects against light, air, and moisture
