How much caffeine does this tea contain and when is the best time to drink it?

This steamed green tea contains caffeine, which is naturally present in tea leaves and gives the infusion a more noticeable lifting effect than most herbal beverages. The actual caffeine level depends on brewing time and temperature, but generally steamed green teas fall into the moderate range - typically less than black tea but more than white tea.

For timing, many people choose to drink it with breakfast or as an afternoon pick-me-up during work or study. If you are sensitive to caffeine, it may be better to avoid a strong infusion late in the evening. Very hot tea can also seem sharp on an empty stomach for some, so a slightly cooler brew or having it alongside food may be more comfortable.
