Great for just before bed. Add a little sugar and milk to relax you before bed.
Decaf black tea from Sri Lanka. Tangy, sweet mandarin notes, and balanced astringency. The classic afternoon cup.

my favorite decaf tea..surprisingly strong and flavorful..I have it every night!
I have been ordered this for 2 years and its still the best decaf tea I can find. I have tried many others and they always on the weak side. This is perfect for the evening.
Nothing special, but got the job done as a late-night tea.
This tea feels familiar to me. very predictable but likeable flavor. I truly enjoyed this and decaf is always a nice thing to have around.
It seems like very little of character of the ceylon was lost to the decaf process. Well executed!
Beats your standard store ceylon by miles. Doesn't get nearly as bitter and potent as the usual stuff. Very good.
A good tea that combines well with steamed milk for nice sleepy time drink.
I bought some more decaf teas for my boyfriend and I to drink at night. The first brewing of this was soapy. It wasn't from cleaning the pot or lingering flavors, it was just bad. Maybe there was a bad leaf in it. I did another brew tonight (a few days after that incident) and the flavor came out MUCH better. This tea is not too strong or overly bitter like normal decaf ceylon bags. We will be purchasing this again in the future for our late night tea cravings!
This is a perfectly serviceable Celyon black tea. It's not the most special Celyon I've ever had, but I certainly wouldn't turn down a cup in the future.
Love this for iced tea--I almost always drink decaf, and love this as a regular iced tea or mixed with a flavor.
This tea is wonderful for a decaf. Very mellow and leaves me wanting more. I just wish there were more bags per sack.
I love ceylon, and caffein never used to have any effect on me, but now as I hit 21 it suddenly does. Which is perfect being a musician! But ceylon is what I'd normally drink at night, so this lets me continue with my favorite nightcap just decaf. Delish
I'm used to sipping an average black tea all day long, with and without sugar, depending on what I need at the time. Now that I have to restrict my caffeine intake, I'm thinking this will work for everyday when I just want something normal, no added florals or fruits, just tea. It's as good as I expected. A nice, everyday tea.
Not my favorite tea, but occasionally, I want a plain black tea at night and this fits the bill. I definitely have to watch the timer on this one.
Like all decaf teas this lacks the flavor of regular tea. I am deciding to just drink tea in the morning and forget all the decaf stuff. The one advantage to this tea is that you can drink in the evening but lacks any satisfying taste.
Decent tea but not as decaf as I needed it to be. Definitely not a right before bed tea for me.
Probably just me, but the decaf version was a bit ricey.
Simply wonderful: flavorful, nuanced, you absolutely will not miss the caffeine!
This has become my go-to tea for everyday use. It makes for a brilliant replacement for bagged teas that lose most of their flavor when decaffeinated. Plus, with this tea, I can finally indulge in my cravings for syrupy-sweet iced tea. It's rough being a SOutherner who is sensitive to caffeine.
I bought this as a gift for a friend who, sadly, had to give up caffiene. She said that the medium body of the tea was pleasant and flavorful and a million times better than the drek she was buying at the grocery store.
Ok, I added that last bit, but it's still true.
Excelent decaf tea. I've never had decaf tea this good. Must have for evening and night tea time.
Sometimes I like to mix this with some of the flavored teas if I want a more delicate flavor. Decaf Ceylon plays well this others.
1st review: First and only cup so far tasted as bad as bagged decaf from the grocery store. Hoping a second cup improves my opinion as I'm desperate to find a halfway decent decaf black to drink in the evenings. 2 tspns in IngenuiTEA, 212F 3 mins.
Updated review: Second cup was still awful if taken black but bearable with a splash of milk. Subsequently updated rating from bad to ok. 2 tspns in IngenuiTEA, 212F 5 mins.
Sigh. If adding milk to a decaf tea is the only way I can have black tea in the afternoon or evening, I guess it's what I'll have to do until a better decaf black comes along.
Nicely robust, though pretty basic. It did the job well when I wanted something black with milk, but needed to sleep soon.
This tea is nothing spectacular or unexpected, but it's a good solid decaf black tea. It makes a nice, light iced tea as well.
I love that it takes on the flavor of whatever is added! Makes it perfect to mix with stronger-flavored teas.
This tea is surprisingly good for a decaf. Perfect for late night sipping when you want tea that tastes like tea, but you don't want to be awake until 4 in the morning.
I'm so glad to have found a full flavored black tea that I can enjoy in the evening. I drink this tea every night, so it has become a staple in my home.
I drink so much tea that I needed to start cutting all my black teas with decaf so that the caffeine levels were tolerable. This tea is PERFECT for that- it adds the full flavor of tea without competing with whatever other tea I am mixing it with. It's just a nice way to boost a cup of tea but cut down on caffeine.
mild flavor tea, enjoyed this as a hot tea, plain no sugar or milk and greatly enjoyed it.
I'm pretty disappointed with this decaf ceylon. In removing the caffeine from this tea, they also seem to have removed the flavor. Weak and astringent. I won't be buying this again.
This a nice, mild tea. The fact that it is decaf is wonderful. I can drink it in an evening with the fear of sleep loss.
I enjoyed this tea. Nice tea to drink in the evening.
love the flavor of this one, and it's perfect right before bedtime!
I'm sensitive to caffeine, and can only drink about a cup of black tea a day, so I was hoping this would be a nice replacement. It's pretty good for what it is! Not bitter, but sort of weak. I don't have much experience with decafs, so I'll give this a 'good' for now.
wful, just awful - probably because of the decaffeination process.
I love decaf Ceylon! I found it to have a very slight smoky character and mild flavor that makes for an excellent everyday cup.
I love Ceylon. Always have. The decaf ceylon makes for a great afternoon cup of tea because it tastes the same as regular ceylon but I can still sleep in the evenings.
Just as lovely as the regular ceylon. So happy it is in the decaf form
Definitely one of my favorite teas to drink at nighttime. It's so smooth and relaxing.
I got this for my mom who loves black tea, but can't handle the caffeine. She loves it.
Tastes just as good as Regular...perfect cup of black tea without caffeine
This tea was really weak and flavorless which is disappointing. I love the ceylon sonata but I can't tolerate the caffeine.
I love drinking this iced with lemon in the evenings.
this is so great for iced tea i cant have much caffeine and this does it for me i just wish i can make it without it becoming cloudy
I've found that it is rare to find a decaf tea that doesn't lack in taste, but this one is an exception.
This was my first ever loose tea, and I am SOLD on being a tea drinker! Its very smooth, flavorful and good to the last drop! I am excited to try other teas you guys offer on this site!
Sometimes decaf can make the taste a bit off, but I didn't get that with this one. It's just like the regular ceylon.
It's hard to find really good decaffeinated black tea, but this is the best one I've found anywhere. It's not great, but it very good. It can be a little sour, compared to regular ceylon tea, but it's much better than any other decaf black tea I've had.
I tend to have a craving for tea late at night, so I bought this to avoid too much caffeine before bed. It's not bad but I don't love it.
