Tastes Like: burnt sugar, buckwheat, chicory, bourbon
Feels Like: the forward familiarity of the south

Decaf Low Country has the full flavor of the original Low Country, but almost no caffeine so you can enjoy any time of day or night. It is decaffeinated using the nontoxic CO2 decaffeination process. This tea has the ostentatious warmth of a Southern drawl. It’s got robust body and character to match. In the first sip, the chewiness of burnt sugar mingles with the dark, rich flavor of buttery buckwheat hotcakes and finally, a latent chicory note. A drop of milk adds a whisper of bourbon. This is a fantastic morning tea to rival an English breakfast. Its potent charm ambles all the livelong day.

📝 Blender's Notes

Ever since its release in 2014, Low Country has been a runaway best seller. It is so awesomely flavorful that we decided to make a decaf version. 

We've had many requests for more decaf teas and we are so pleased to bring you our very first decaf August blend, Decaf Low Country. Now you can enjoy a cup or pot of your favorite tea around the clock. No jitters, no caffeine crash. It's rich, it's bold, and it's 90% caffeine free. This tea has only 5.5mg of caffeine per serving when brewed as directed.

We'd love for you to try it and let us know what you think. Does it stand up to the original Low Country? Is this the decaf blend you've been waiting for? We want to know.

Warmly,
Gina Zupsich, head blender

    Excellent Hot or Cold

    This tea company has become my favorite. The quality of the tea, overall, is outstanding. The flavor of the bourbon burnt sugar tea is robust and distinctive. It is not bitter and has no strange aftertaste. It is actually quite smooth and very pleasant. The tea is made from real tea leaves and contains no tea powder or cast-off product. To August Tea Co. - well done, very well done ♥️
