It is just those feelings of well-being and mental health that led us to name our delicious citrus-floral green tea Oasis.
Green teas are well known for their high antioxidant levels and ability to arrest free radicals in our bodies. Green tea includes many kinds of antioxidant polyphenols, such as flavonoids, thearubigins and epicatechins. The strongest antioxidant effects are often attributed to catechins, including EGCG which has received a great deal of media attention lately.
Recent epidemiological research strongly suggests that frequent green tea consumption reduces mortality, and studies have identified potential benefits preventing ailments as diverse as tooth decay, cancer and heart disease. Additionally, green tea includes L-theanine, a substance that has been shown to improve concentration and create a feeling of relaxation. Theanine is thought to counterbalance caffeine in tea, and is often cited as a reason that tea may make one less jittery than coffee.

"Light and mellow"
"Light and mellow with a smoothness that is soothing. The most delicate of green teas forms a base for this blend which has slight whispery notes of flowers and citrus. The flavoring on this tea is extremely light, so it tastes more like a hint of roses behind a slightly tangy background."

I normally steer clear of green teas
I normally steer clear of green teas, but this one is great. Very delicate with a lemony taste. I have let it sit too long before, and it even tastes great cooled.

Summer tea
Smooth, lemon, floral, and yes, green tea. I usually do not love green tea, but this is a very satisfying concoction. Can be bitter if brewed too long, so keep it on the one to two minute side.

The caffeine level in a cup of tea can vary by tea type, steeping practices and even the particular tea harvest. We use the following designations as guidelines for the caffeine levels of our teas:
Robust, high caffeine teas; 50-100mg
Lower caffeine teas with shorter steeping times; 30-50mg
Tea/herbal blends with less than 30mg
Decaf tea retains a tiny amount of caffeine
Herbal teas are 100% caffeine free
These steeping guidelines produce the best results for our palates. Use them as a guideline, but you may certainly experiment and find the best results for yours.
