Recently I have wanted to cut back, but not eliminate, caffeine, and avoid caffeine spikes and jitters.
I usually drink green tea and I brew it for about 1 1/2 minutes with water at the right temperature (below boiling). It has some caffeine, but not alot, maybe about the same as a can of Coke. When I brew coffee I use half of the beans decaf (usually I do half Colombian/Brasilian decaf, half Central American/Mexican). When I brew black tea (3 minutes or so) I find the concentration of caffeine to be a stronger than the "half-caf" coffee.
So I want to brew some good black tea thas is has a bit less caffeine, maybe a little more than green tea but not much.
Is whole leaf black tea available in decaf, or just in tea bags? Also, is tea blended at all like coffee?
