The tea plantations of Darjeeling are located at over 2000 metres in the majestic Himalayas. Our Second Flush blend, from specially selected gardens, is excellent with or without milk. The leaves and tips, which are a little uneven, produce a strong full bodied cup. Caffeine is removed gently by the CO² high pressure method in order to retain as much of the characteristic Darjeeling flavour as possible.

Use 1 level teaspoon per cup and steep for 3 minutes in just boiled water.

PLEASE NOTE:  The classic full flavour of Darjeeling tea is very slightly reduced during decaffeination.  Also the caffeine itself contributes flavour. This tea is as close to the original as can possibly be.

    Decaffeinated, loose leaf, Darjeeling tea

    Posted by Mrs Diane Hellyer on 5th Aug 2021

    I searched for this tea as it's a favourite, and I had decided to use only decaff tea, as well as decaff coffee. The flavour is fine, so I am pleased. The service was quite swift, but the price was steep.

    Darjeeling leaf second flush decaffeinated

    Disappointing. Does not have the specific taste that I think of as darjeeling. Rather expensive for an ordinary cup of tea.

    Need tea but no caffeine

    Astonished to find a de-caffeinated darjeeling and even more astonished to find one that tasted better than the normal 2nd. flush I normally purchase.

    The no-compromise decaf

    Posted by Andy on 1st Mar 2016

    Having to change to decaf was not an easy task. Being a devoted Darjeeling drinker for a long time, locating a good alternative without harsh decaffeination processes, was not going to be easy. However, it was. Thanks to The Teapot and their Darjeeling Leaf Second Flush Decaffeinated. It's a wonderfully complex flavour that is also light and refreshing. I really look forward to my tea, even if it is decaffeinated!
