I love this tea. As with the other review, I was forced to make some lifestyle changes with regards to caffeine, and while a cup of caffeinated tea here and there isn’t a problem, it’s nice to have a decaf for evenings or indulging. We ordered this tea, along with several others from TeaSource, and this is the one we keep coming back to. It really does have “illusions of citrus”, to the point where my wife asked if I had added lemon. We typically do 3.5g in a 12oz kyusu and get 3 or 4 steeps out of it easy. The second steep is my favorite, and it really opens up. Just buy it, it’s lovely.

Mild Chinese green tea without caffeine. Light and grassy with the illusion of citrus.
The base tea is decaffeinated using the “Supercritical CO2 Decaffeination Process.” To summarize, this is when heated and pressurized CO2 passes through the tea leaves, bonding with and removing the caffeine molecules while leaving the rest of their chemical structure intact. Though more expensive than other methods, it is believed to best preserve the character of the tea.
