Now, first things first, I am not a tea person and I will probably never consider myself one. I am a die-hard coffee fan, all day e’r day! However once I tried these products from Teecino, they changed my thought on coffee alternatives!. I’ve been having troubles with caffeine, it’s been having a negative affect on me and it makes me feel dizzy and lethargic ! I never thought tea or herbal coffee had much flavor, every time I tried it it seemed as if I was drinking hot water, not my cup of tea (pun intended). Let me tell you about Teecino a little bit, their company is not only tea but caffeine-free herbal coffee and super food cereal! It is such a nice change from the same old cuppa’ joe! Not to mention the herbs used contain antioxidants, soluble fiber, enzymes, essential oils and immune boosting constituents! This product is so beneficial for your health just like tea! Before I give details on their products, first look at this healthy recipe I made using their sustained energy cereal!
What they sent me:
French Roast Herbal Coffee(non-caf)
Taste: I was so impressed by this one because I am a dark roast kind of girl! The perfect intensity for a dark roast, not too high and not too little! Their is no need for caffeine in this!
Vanilla Nut Herbal Coffee (non-caf)
Taste: Wow I love this flavor! Just the right amount of vanilla with a hint of a nutty taste!
Dandelion Dark Roast Herbal Coffee (non-caf)
Taste: Again, in love with this dark roast! Like it says on the packet “this delivers all the satisfaction without all the caffeine and acidity of coffee!”
Dandelion Caramel Nut Herbal Coffee(non-caf)
Taste: Similar to the dandelion dark roast but lighter. This medium roast has a hint of sweetness thanks to “a swirl of sweet against roasted nuts”!
Hazelnut Herbal Coffee (non-caf)
Taste: This one has such a powerful decadent flavor! the intense flavor of the hazelnuts is accompanied by golden roasted almonds, figs and dates, adding a tint of sweetness!

The ingredients are mostly organic like organic carob, organic barley, organic chicory, dates, almonds, organic figs, natural vanilla flavor and natural nut flavor!
