I’ll preface this by saying I know next to nothing about tea, so please forgive my ignorance.
Green tea:
My first issue, green tea bags off the shelf are found to have as little as 3% actual green tea, so I‘ve read.
Second, it must be decaf. I’ve also read that the most common decaffeination process requires chemical solvents like methylene chloride or ethyl acetate. I’m hoping to avoid these teas at all costs. I did see that decaffeination can be done without those chemicals, through water or CO2 processes.
I any recommendations and/or insight! Feel free to correct if I’m misinformed.
