A decaf green that has kept its dignity: soft, mellow and clean with effectively zero astringency, and only a refined grassy undertone rather than the flat, papery cup decaffeination usually leaves behind. It does the one job a decaf green has to do, taste like green tea, well enough that it works as the after-dinner cup for people who love green but cannot take caffeine late. Brew it off the boil to keep it gentle. Ignore the calming-ritual wording; the honest case is that it is simply one of the better decaf greens.
Twinings Pure Green Decaf Tea is the decaffeinated single-ingredient green tea from the Twinings range, the same plain green leaf as the standard Pure Green Tea but with the caffeine removed via the CO2 decaffeination process, picked into the Teas.co.uk curator selection as the late-evening alternative to the regular Pure Green Tea for anyone who wants the cup without the lift.
The decaf process retains the soft vegetal character of the green leaf surprisingly well, the cup reading recognisably as green tea rather than the watery decaf coffees the supermarket aisle is full of. No added flavourings, no jasmine, just the decaffeinated leaf, the right way to drink a decaf green tea.
Packaging: Follow the current UK pack and local-authority guidance; components can require different disposal routes.
A twenty-bag Twinings household pack at an accessible price, the proper late-evening green tea cup for anyone trying to step away from caffeine.

How Does Twinings Pure Green Decaf Tea, 20 Tea Bag 35g Compare to:
- Pukka Supreme Green: Twinings Pure Green Decaf Tea, 20 Tea Bag 35g offers a more distinct flavour profile and competitive pricing versus the mass market alternative; the difference is most noticeable in the second half of the cup when Pukka Supreme Green starts to thin out.
- Clipper Green: where Clipper Green leans into a single dominant note, Twinings Pure Green Decaf Tea, 20 Tea Bag 35g delivers a more balanced and aromatic experience designed for daily drinking rather than as an occasional treat.
- Twinings Pure Green: both occupy a similar price band and shelf position, but Twinings Pure Green Decaf Tea, 20 Tea Bag 35g differentiates through its certified sourcing, ethical packaging and the Twinings brand heritage outlined above.
Ideal Brewing Conditions:
-
Brew it Hot: Boil the kettle then allow the water to cool for about 2 minutes to around 80 degrees Celsius to protect the delicate leaves.
-
Thermal Integrity: Do not use fully boiling water as this can scald the Green Tea and create immediate bitterness.
-
Steep Time: Steep for exactly 2 minutes then remove the bag to achieve the perfect smooth balance.
The Tea Master Brewing Instructions:
-
Measure: Place one individual tea bag in your favourite cup or pre warmed mug.
-
Pour: Add 200 millilitre of hot water at 80 degrees Celsius directly over the bag to activate the natural goodness.
-
Steep: Wait for 2 minutes to allow the gentle vegetal profile to fully hydrate.
-
Enjoy: Best savoured plain for a clean calming lift although it is exceptional when served as a mild iced tea.
The Tea Master Secret (Cold Brew & Iced Tea):
-
Iced Gentle Refresh: Brew a strong hot infusion using two bags in 150 millilitre of water. Once steeped allow to cool completely then pour into a tall glass filled with ice. Add a slice of cucumber and a squeeze of lime for a hydrating and stim free summer drink.
-
Decaf Green Spritz: Brew one bag in 100 millilitre of hot water for 2 minutes. Once cooled top with sparkling water and a touch of fresh mint. The carbonation highlights the mellow earthy notes for a bracing and sophisticated evening non alcoholic refreshment.
