Clipper Organic Decaf Fairtrade Black Tea is a full-bodied, chemical-free decaffeinated black tea sold as 80 unbleached, plant-based tea bags and sourced under Fairtrade standards.

This tin or box contains 80 individually sealed tea bags of organic black tea that has been decaffeinated using a CO2 process rather than solvents, preserving flavor while removing most caffeine.

The result is a robust cup that suits morning rituals, afternoon breaks, or an evening caffeine-free option.

How does this decaf black tea taste and brew?

The blend keeps the characteristic malty, rounded notes of black tea, with a smooth finish and minimal bitterness. It steeps quickly and performs well at standard brewing temperatures, giving you reliable flavor whether you prefer it hot or iced.

• Flavor profile: full-bodied with malty and slightly sweet undertones.
• Brewing guide: pour freshly boiled water and steep 2–4 minutes depending on strength.
• Serving ideas: drink plain, with milk, or cooled over ice for iced tea.
• Consistency: CO2 decaffeination helps retain natural black tea aromas.

What makes the decaffeination process different?

Clipper uses a carbon dioxide (CO2) method to remove caffeine, avoiding chemical solvents. This approach targets caffeine molecules while preserving most of the tea’s natural oils and aromas, which helps maintain a richer cup compared with some other decaf methods.

• Method: CO2 extraction — solvent-free and gentle on flavor compounds.
• Result: preserves essential oils that create depth and aroma.
• Quality: designed to produce a decaf tea that still tastes like black tea.
• Labeling: marketed and sold as organic and decaffeinated without chemicals.

How does this product reflect Clipper’s ethical and environmental commitments?

Clipper Tea emphasizes traceability and fair compensation for growers while minimizing environmental impact through plant-based, unbleached tea bags and recyclable packaging. The product is Fairtrade certified and produced by a B Corp, underlining social and ecological priorities across the supply chain.

• Fairtrade: ensures farmers receive fair prices and community benefits.
• B Corp status: company-level commitment to people and planet.
• Packaging: recyclable materials and unbleached tea bags reduce waste and bleaching chemicals.
• Sustainability: plant-based bags avoid plastic and speed composting where facilities allow.

Can I use these tea bags for iced tea and recipes?

Yes—the concentrated flavor of this black tea makes it a good base for chilled drinks and culinary uses. Brew stronger than usual, cool, and dilute or sweeten as desired for iced tea; it can also be infused into desserts or syrups where black tea flavor is wanted without caffeine impact.

• Iced tea tip: brew double strength, cool, then serve over ice with a slice of lemon.
• Culinary use: infuse into custards, syrups, or poaching liquids for baked goods.
• Mixology: pairs with citrus and ginger in mocktails and cold brews.
• Storage: keep sealed and dry to preserve aroma for multiple uses.
