2001 night - Green & black tea 100 grams - Café du Jour loose leaf tea

Yes, 2001 night is registered in our product data as containing caffeine. The blend is made up of green and black tea, and both come from the tea plant and naturally contain caffeine. If you want something without caffeine in the evening, take a look at our rooibos or herbal infusions.

2001 night contains green tea, black tea, rose petals, jasmine blossom, marigold petals and flavouring. The flower petals and the jasmine blossom create the colourful look in the cup and the floral scent; the fruity strawberry note comes from the added flavouring, there are no pieces of fruit in the blend. If you have an allergy or want to check the full and current list, look at the label on the packaging.

Because this blend contains both green and black tea, we advise water of about 80 to 85 degrees and a steeping time of 2 to 3 minutes, with roughly 2 grams of tea per cup. Boiling water or a long steeping time mainly makes the green part bitter, while the jasmine and the floral notes flatten out. If you find the tea too light, use a slightly higher dose rather than steeping it for longer.

The pack contains 100 grams of loose tea. At the usual dosage of around 2 grams per cup, that works out at about 50 cups. This blend contains a fair amount of light petals, so it is best to weigh your tea or use a generous, level teaspoon per cup.

Yes, this is loose tea without bags, so you need a tea strainer, tea filter or filter bag. Preferably use a roomy strainer with a fine mesh: the tea leaves need room to expand, while the small petals and jasmine blossom should not end up in your cup. You will find tea strainers and loose tea filters in our tea accessories.
