Ringtons Tea & Coffee

I love this tea - wouldn't be surprised if someone told me they'd forgotten to take the caffeine out! (Posted on 12/05/2012)

As a Geordie in exile in Essex we had to have a Ringtons Red Cross parcel, everyone comments on how lovely the tea is in our house and nobody notices that it is decaf (Doctor's Orders). I have tried al the other decaf teas and will only buy them if I am stupid enough to run out of Ringtons. I love that you now have some of the Homeware online, please can we have some of the blue and white china on there:-)) (Posted on 18/11/2011)

Ive had to give up caffeine and tried loads of different brands. I used to drink the extra fresh tea from Ringtons so decided to try their decaff brand. Wow, I can enjoy a cup of tea again, tastes just the same, but no annoying headaches from caffeine!!! (Posted on 15/04/2011)

Three years ago I had to cut out caffiene for medical reasons. In order to find a cup of tea that is as good as the Twinings caffienated stuff I used to drink I think I must have tried most of the brands but for me nothing compares to this one ( I appreciate it's down to individual taste). I've always found the others too bitter or too bland or with a slightly metallic taste. I think these tea bags are as good as the caffienated stuff I used to drink. (Posted on 29/08/2010)

I went decaff after my doctor said limiting caffeine could relieve painful periods, and tried various brands with mixed results, but from the very first taste of Ringtons decaff, both my husband and I noticed a wonderfully fresh clean but robust taste. I like tons of full fat milk in tea so I have to brew it quite strong. Before Ringtons I was grateful for a cup of tea anywhere, but now, other teas regardless of brand, all seem to taste strangely 'earthy' as if the tea is mixed with soil or as if the bag's been dragged through a gutter or something; -just horrible! No matter how thirsty I am now I can't bear more than a couple of sips, so I have to carry Ringtons teabags permanently when travelling so that I can brew my own. It's not just me, because guests have commented when I make them a brew without telling them it's decaff. They always take a few sips and sigh, saying what a lovely tasting cup of tea it is. I thought its because we filter our water, but it still tastes great in hard water areas. The only other tea that compares reasonably favourably is Liptons Breakfast tea with the bold yellow bags, so if you like that you'll love Ringtons Decaff. It's the best tasting tea I've ever known and I wasn't even much of a tea drinker before, but now I can guzzle loads as long as it's Ringtons Decaffeinated! (Posted on 10/07/2009)

I prefer my tea strong but milky and this t-bag was up to the mark for me. No-one noticed the brand change or infact that they are decaffeinated. Will keep on buying them (Posted on 30/03/2009)

Just finished trying this tea out (I normally drink Tetley Decaffinated) This tea tasted quite strong (definitely 2 cups worth, maybe 3!) compared to what I normally drink and felt a bit 'heavy'. It also had a slight tang to it when tasting that I would need to get use to. (Posted on 11/02/2009)
