Smoky No Caffeine Recommendations
Can anyone recommend a tea that they enjoy that has prominent smoky flavors but no caffeine? I’m particularly interested in teas that naturally have no caffeine (so I’m using the word “tea” broadly here…) rather than decaffeinated teas. I adore a good lapsang souchong, but I can’t do caffeine after midday. Thanks for any tips!
I don’t think I have ever MET a no-caff that was smoky before, sadly. I hope you find some!
I don’t have any suggestions for caffeine-free, but a dark roast hojicha might be a good option for low caffeine?
Thanks to both of you for your replies! Cameron B., I’ll follow your suggestion for sure.
Ippodo also has an Iribancha that is very smoky, though I think it only comes in teabag form.
I have no experience with it, but willow-herb actually once reminded me black tea (I have a pouch right now, but haven’t tried yet), but they have smoky version.
