Additional notes: I like that this says for caffeine it’s “low” on the Steepster page because now I’m questioning WHY DID I BUY THIS WHEN I KNEW HOW WEAK THE BLACK TEA WAS?!?! I guess I just like the idea of it more than I was recalling my memories of it. The black tea couldn’t get any weaker, which is a real shame. Maybe I thought it was the age of my sample making the black tea weak before? Or hoping that the base had changed by now? It was on sale anyway. Like I said the other day, there is nothing worse than a light base on a chocolate tea. bleck. Lowering the rating from 79 (which I don’t usually do, but new harvests confirm things.)

Only slightly related, but this is the caffeine rating metric that DT uses:
Low = 1-19mg/8oz
Medium = 20-39mg/8oz
High = 40+mg/8oz
Just in case you were curious.
Thanks, Ros! I don’t think caffeine affects me at this point anyway. haha
I feel that – I think I murdered any reaction my body might have had to caffeine years ago, back when VariaTEA and I were competing for tasting notes and I was steeping six teas at a time.
SIX teas at a time?!? Yeah, I think when I brew two at a time, even if I try to only have one black tea and another type (rather than two black teas at the same time), that alone did it for my caffeine levels.
hahahahaha @Roswell Strange, I forgot about that! We both ended up drinking like 20 cups or something insane that day. Also, I know for sure some of those were the 24 oz mason jar. I would say we should do that again but I genuinely think I might die.
I don’t think I’ve ever caffeine overdosed, but that’s probably the closest I’ve been.
