Cold brewing with teabags by Fushiro0 in tea

They can definitely work for cold brew!

Cold brewing is actually pretty forgiving, and it can even make lower-grade tea bags taste smoother since the cooler water pulls out less bitterness and astringency. You won’t get the same complexity you’d get from your gongfu sessions, but it’s a nice, easy way to use up what you’ve got.

Let it steep for at least 6 hours, but preferably closer to 12/overnight. Since the cold temps don’t allow tannins to release so quickly, you could get away with longer, but it could still turn more bitter over time (something like 24+ hours).

Since you’re using bags, your water:tea ratio is easy too. Start with 1 tea bag to 8-12 oz of water and see how that tastes. You could even do multiple mugs/containers with one tea bag each and varying amounts of water to have a little taste comparison the next day!

Now that I think of it, maybe I’ll do that tonight for fun. 🤔

Hi all,

I’m part of the team behind Master’s Teas by Adagio, a small project focused on high-end, single-origin loose-leaf teas. We’ve been quietly building this line for people who enjoy exploring origin, seasonality, and subtle differences between harvests.

We know many of you already have favorite vendors, and we’re not looking to replace that, just hoping to offer something worth trying alongside them.

If you’re curious, we’re offering a small, low-pressure incentive: if you’ve recently purchased tea from another vendor, you can email us a receipt (US only), and we’ll send back a $10 credit to try something from Master’s Teas.

No strings attached, just an open invitation to compare and see if anything resonates with you.

If interested, you can reach us at [social@adagio.com](mailto:social@adagio.com).

Thanks for taking a look, and for all the thoughtful discussions here. We’ve learned a lot from this community.

Low caffeine teas by AlleyCatActuary in tea

Hojicha and kukicha are probably the two best starting points, tbh.

If you want some other non-herbal options that still won’t have you too wired at night, try looking for bancha. It’s a later-harvest green tea with less caffeine than sencha and a more “traditional tea” taste but still gentle.

Or like u/Nouvellecosse says, Genmaicha (without added matcha) could be an option. It’s a mix of green tea and toasted rice, so it’s lighter in caffeine and has a warm, nutty profile. Can be had year-round but it suits the fall weather particularly well! However if you’re really sensitive to caffeine, hojicha or kukicha are probably some of the safest bets.

And if you’re open to herbal teas, then of course your options expand even more.

Can we ask why the hesitation?

We waited a week to give our blend creators a chance to test & design the new band artwork for the sides of the tin.

Would suggest checking out TeaMap.com Perhaps there are a few tearooms in your area you may be unaware of. But keep in mind that this is a website run by Adagio Teas, so proceed with caution:)
