Experience the robust, uncompromised depth of a traditional morning cup without the jitter-inducing properties of caffeine. Our premium CO2 Decaffeinated English Breakfast Blend No. 2 Loose Leaf Tea is meticulously crafted for connoisseurs who refuse to sacrifice flavor for tranquility. Showcasing high-quality, whole-leaf characteristics, this bold black tea delivers a medium-to-full body, a pleasant classical astringency, and a long, satisfying finish. It pours a beautifully bright liquor that tastes magnificent on its own or enhanced with a splash of milk to complement its complex, malty profile at any hour of the day.
Unlike standard decaffeination methods that utilize harsh chemical solvents and leave an unpalatable, flat aftertaste, this blend undergoes an advanced, chemical-free CO2 decaffeination process. The finished orthodox tea is briefly bathed in pristine water and gently flushed with naturally occurring carbon dioxide. The CO2 molecules precisely bind to and extract the caffeine, leaving the delicate proteins, structural flavonoids, and natural antioxidants completely untouched. The structural foundation of Blend No. 2 relies on premium Flowery Pekoe (FP) grade leaves sourced from elite estates in the high-altitude Dimbula region of Sri Lanka. Grown between 3,000 and 4,000 feet above sea level, these estates yield a inherently bright, flavor-forward leaf with subtle fruity undertones and an elegant floral aroma.
