About
Hi, I'm John, and Decaf Digest is a passion project of mine.
I could drink tea all day. There's something comforting about a having a hot beverage in hand, and the ritual of making a tea is a welcome break from sitting down. But as someone who is sensitive to caffeine—even a little makes me sweat and impacts my sleep—drinking as much caffeinated tea as I would like to would transform me into a sleepless slug.
I've taken to trying a number of brands to see which decaf tea is the best for me, and I thought I'd share my findings with the world.
Methodology
My reviewing methodology currently isn't very scientific, but I do follow a few rules.
💲 Reviews are not paid or sponsored
I try to maintain integri-tea. If you'd like to send me a tea to review, please get in touch, but please note that doing so won't affect the review.
Affiliate links are used in the site, which helps support us by earning a commission if someone purchases a tea after reading about it here. These affiliate links are labelled for transparency.
🫖 Reviews are written over a number of cups
I get to know a tea that I review, so I try it a number of times before publishing, and any aspects of the review relating to the tea's flavour are written as I'm drinking a cup of that tea.
📄 Teas are made with freshly boiled water according to the directions on the box
Black teas are taken with milk—no sugar—and are generally steeped for the longest recommended time.
📋 Reviews consider a number of factors about the tea
There's more to a cup of tea than just the leaves and the brew they produce. Factors I consider to determine whether I recommend a tea include:
- Steep strength: how strong the brew is and whether a black tea can take a good amount of milk
- Flavour: whether the tea tastes good and whether it tastes like something is added or missing
- Packaging: whether the packaging is eco-friendly
- Price: whether the tea is good value for money
