Does TEAVIT Odratee contain caffeine, and can it be drunk in the evening? — Barley Tea, 100 g – TEAVIT

TEAVIT Odratee contains no caffeine — the drink is made from barley grain, not from coffee beans or tea leaves. That is what makes it feel fundamentally different: it does not have the pronounced stimulating effect typical of coffee or strong black tea.

Because it is caffeine-free, the drink fits well into an evening routine — when you fancy something warm with a rich taste, but without the risk of perking up before bed. This also makes it a suitable option for those giving up coffee temporarily or for good: the grainy taste of barley is rich enough to create the feel of a familiar hot drink.

Barley tea is often chosen as a drink for the whole family — partly because it contains no caffeine. Nevertheless, if you are choosing a drink for a child or have special dietary restrictions, it is worth following a specialist’s recommendations. Barley contains gluten, so the drink is not suitable in case of gluten intolerance (coeliac disease); it is not drunk in case of hypersensitivity to its ingredients, and if an allergic reaction occurs, stop drinking it and consult a doctor.
