Store tea in an airtight container in a cool, dry place, away from heat, light, and strong odors to maintain freshness. Our loose-leaf teas are packed in high-quality tin caddies (metal tins) with an inner airtight foil seal, helping preserve flavor, aroma, and freshness for longer.

Yes, many teas naturally contain caffeine. Caffeine occurs naturally in the leaves of the Camellia sinensis plant, which is used to produce teas. Herbal teas made from flowers, fruits, or herbs typically do not contain caffeine.

Caffeine levels vary by tea type and how it’s prepared (water temperature, steep time, and leaf quantity).

Approximate caffeine content per 240 ml (8 oz) serving:

• Black tea: 40–70 mg
• Oolong tea: 30–50 mg
• Green tea: 20–45 mg
• White tea: 15–30 mg
• Coffee (brewed): 80–100+ mg

Compared to coffee, tea generally contains less caffeine per serving. Tea also contains L-theanine, an amino acid that can moderate caffeine absorption, often resulting in a more gradual and sustained level of alertness rather than the rapid spike commonly associated with coffee.
