Everything You Need to Know About Our Decaf Matcha
At Yu Tea, we believe you shouldn't have to compromise between calm energy and clean ingredients. Our Organic Decaf Matcha is crafted with care using a dual-process decaffeination method that preserves matcha's vibrant color, creamy umami flavor, and powerful nutrients - without the stimulating effects of caffeine.
A Traditional Powdered Tea, Gently Decaffeinated
Our matcha begins with shade-grown, first-harvest tencha leaves cultivated in nutrient-rich volcanic soil. These premium leaves are meticulously selected for their high L-theanine content and smooth taste.
We decaffeinate using a two-stage natural process:
- Pure Water Extraction The leaves are gently steeped in pure, mineral-rich water to draw out caffeine while retaining the delicate flavors and nutritional compounds. No chemicals. No solvents. Just water.
- Supercritical CO₂ Process To ensure optimal decaffeination without compromising quality, we use supercritical carbon dioxide. This advanced, non-toxic method further removes residual caffeine while preserving antioxidants and amino acids like L-theanine.
Caffeine Content Comparison
Enjoy matcha's benefits with a gentler touch - perfect for afternoon sipping, evening rituals, or caffeine-sensitive lifestyles.

Nutrients Preserved. Wellness Sustained.
Despite removing caffeine, our advanced decaffeination process is designed to maintain the highest levels of nutrients and antioxidants found in traditional matcha powder. By using a meticulous approach, we ensure that essential components such as catechins, amino acids, and vitamins remain intact.- Up to 90% of catechins (EGCG) – powerful antioxidants that support metabolism and skin health
- L-theanine – the amino acid that promotes calm focus
- Chlorophyll & Vitamins – natural detoxifiers and immune supporters
The result? A balanced, grounding tea that supports your well-being without overstimulation.
