Really good flavour and price is reasonable and compares well with other quality brands.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best tasting decaf
You can’t tell this os decaf based on the flavour, it is excellent. There has been a problem with manufacturing so you may need to cut with scissors but it has been resolved. Price hike is due to supply with the shipping issue. Don’t let it put you off, such great tea and if you get in touch they have great customer service. Replaced faulty bags for me.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Decaf Tea
As a heavy tea drinker, I have tried other Decaf teas but they were awful. The Birchalls brand was recommended to me and although doubtful, I thought I’d try it. SO glad I did! The tea makes a great cuppa and you cannot tell it is Decaf. Am ordering more

4.0 out of 5 stars Best decaff tea I’ve had…
A full bodied decaff tea. Very similar overtones to PG tips but not quite. That said it’s much better than the vast majority of high street decaff tea brands I’ve bought. This is good enough that I might start drinking tea regularly again!

3.0 out of 5 stars Okay
Taste is okay but leaves a strange after taste. I’ve been drinking Yorkshire decaff tea but it’s a bit weak so thought I’d try something else. Still think I prefer Yorkshire over these. The tea seems to fall through the bag, and I accidentally tore one trying to peel off the sting. Not great but not terrible either. Down to personal taste, and these aren’t for me.

5.0 out of 5 stars What happened to the price..?
My wife and i thought this was a real bargain, 80 teabags for £5.50, but now the price has risen by £2.00…?I could have understood a slight rise by around 50p-75p but this price rather too steep for my liking, therefore we shall have to look for our Birchall tea elsewhere…..Shame really, was looking forwards to another cuppa of great tasting tea…….

5.0 out of 5 stars Really nice brew. Birchall decaf tea bags
Very surprised. These actually are a nice cup of tea. I’ve not found a decaf tea bag that actually tastes like a proper cuppa. Lots of decaf tea bags are weak and have no or a strange taste. You do have to let these brew a few minutes in your cup before adding milk, or like all tea bags, milk weakens them. I can actually enjoy plenty of decent cuppa’s now as I cant have a lot of caffeine. Bonus find for me!

5.0 out of 5 stars Hard To Believe This Is Decaffeinated Tea
My long search for a drinkable decaffeinated tea has finally ended. A first rate cup of tea. I have struggled to find a decaf brand that tastes good – all of the others seem to have a funny taste, often vaguely fishy and quite unpleasant. This tea is very palatable and tastes as good as the caffeinated tea I drink in the morning. Happy to recommend.

I can’t drink caffeine, and I’ve tried numerous decaf tea bags and most are just like drinking water… These on the other hand are full of flavour and brew lovely.

1.0 out of 5 stars Teabags are all split/ Amazon won’t replace item
We have been ok with these in the past but the quality of the bags has gradually got worse. We have now received a box where the bags are completely split and unusable. Be warned Amazon won’t accept a return on these items so we have wasted our money. Shame because the tea is good but we shall buy from somewhere that has a decent returns policy

5.0 out of 5 stars Doesn’t taste decaf
I’ve tried many different decaf teas and most have the same problem – they are really weak and taste like decaf.This Great Rift tea makes a strong colour (if you like that) and tastes like proper tea. Don’t confuse this with the regular Birchall Decaf which is nice but not as good.

1.0 out of 5 stars Unacceptable price hike
Decent tea, if like me you like Kenya tea and while at £4.52 it was pricier than the bland and depressing supermarket decaf offerings it was worth the difference. Now Amazon lists the same product at £ 8.99. How tacky. I won’t be buying again at this price.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cheaper by £2 direct from Birchall
Order it as wife drinks decaf and this is the best we’ve found but supplier has upped price to £7.50 so will not order anymore. You can buy it direct for £5.50 from Birchall!

5.0 out of 5 stars Best decaf tea I’ve tasted!
Read the reviews and thought I’d give it a try. Honestly the best tasting decaf tea I’ve had (and I’ve tried a lot!). It has a lovely flavour, good strength when brewed. Will. Read up a bit more as to whether tea bags are plastic free or not, not sure on that one?? But highly recommended for flavour.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fancy bags and strong tea from Birchall
I’m a HUGE Birchall tea fan. I can only drink decaf and Birchall is by far the best out of all of them.So I thought id try these just as a treat. These pack a big punch in flavour and taste. Just gutted they are so expensive.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice tea but very dusty
The tea is as good as the breakfast One cup type but box came in wrapped clear plastic sadly there was tea dust within the pack. Thought it would be fine when opened plastic wrap but each teabag dusty however tea was great as usual but tea dust in bottom of cup when cuppa nearly finished. A little off putting if you drink all of the liquid. Would definitely recommend for tea flavour but let down a little bit with the tea leaf dust.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best decaf tea!!
I have tried many decaf teas, and this is by far the best decaf tea I have come across. If you are looking for a decaf tea that does not look and taste like dishwater, I would highly recommend this tea. It has a lovely flavour and when milk is added, it looks and tastes like a proper cup of tea which is what I was looking for, minus the side effects of caffeine. Highly recommended!

4.0 out of 5 stars nice bags, tea not bad either
I wanted non plastic bags, decaf. tea. These are the best I have found so far but slightly more expensive. They give a nice cup of tea but still not quite the same flavour as with caffeine. However this is something difficult to judge as the amount of water and length of soak makes a lot of difference. I will probably buy these again if I cannot find a make I have not tried so far.
KatKat –
5.0 out of 5 stars Lovely taste for a decaf!
If you let it brew a couple minutes longer than you would do with regular caffeinated tea, then taste/strength is pretty similar. I’m currently 25 weeks pregnant and want to reduce the amount of caffeine, this tea will officially replace my regular tea!

5.0 out of 5 stars Thank Goodness!
As a heavy tea drinker and nursing mother, I have to stick to no caffeine. Actually, I was already on no caffeine due to improving the health of an overworked, stressed-out system and caffeine was not my friend in that respect… However was really missing the taste of a “proper builders”, as the other brands I have tried are all a bit watery-tasting and lack lustre! This is a god-send for me! Only downside is I have to order it and as an add-on item my Amazon-spend is a little more than it should be, but that is not the tea-bags fault!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Gorgeous. Can’t believe it’s decaff
I chanced upon Birchall Tea while breakfasting out. The tea was so delicious I asked the waiter what it was. It was the birchall great rift breakfast tea. I only have caffeine when I breakfast out, so took a gamble with a purchase of the decaff, hoping I would be equally delighted. It’s gorgeous, really robust and full bodied. One tea bag makes a large pot of strong day. A chance encounter = a new customer. Finally a decaff that has some Welly!

4.0 out of 5 stars It is not Prism Tea Bags
Although the picture shows that it is 80 Prism bags , it is not. The overall quality is fine but not as up to very high standards that Birchall has for other variety of teas they produce.Still I think it is the best decaf tea you can get.

2.0 out of 5 stars Torn and badly cut teabags
The tea came with already torn teabags (see pics). What more, ALL the teabags (always 2 together) are pre-cut in a wrong spot so when you tear one off it opens and spills everywhere! Not sure if I got a bad batch but it’s a major flaw, which makes tea making a little disaster each time. Not great considering it’s not the cheapest tea around? Otherwise the tea as such tastes fine – but prepare you’ll most lukely have to use a strainer as you would for a loose leave one…!
Rob Roy –
5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing taste for decaf
Having tried many decaf teas since having to avoid caffeine, none could compare to regular tea until I tried Birchhall. Rich, balanced, clean flavour without the taste loss you usually get with decaf tea. Absolutely superb and my new go to brand.
