CO2 Decaf


CO2 decaffeination is a process used to remove caffeine from tea leaves. It involves exposing the tea leaves to pressurized carbon dioxide, which acts as a solvent to extract the caffeine from the leaves. The CO2 is then depressurized, causing the caffeine to separate from the CO2, leaving behind decaffeinated tea leaves. This method is considered a more natural and environmentally friendly option compared to other methods of decaffeination, as it does not involve the use of chemical solvents. It also preserves the flavor and aroma of the tea leaves, resulting in a high-quality decaffeinated tea product.
