Have heard that de-caffeinated tea is wan because of the technique used to remove the caffeine?
Answer:
Caffine can be removed by:
Methylene chloride processing
Ethyl acetate processing
Carbon dioxide processing
Water processing
Caffeine is not removed completely using any of these methods, but under federal regulations contained by the United States, caffeine levels must not be above 2.5 percent of the product within order for a product to be labeled "decaffeinated."
Good answer Amy. I think same methods are endorsed in the UK.
