Why not green tea? The caffeine caffeine level would be excessive. I dose at least 40-60 oz. of tea daily and find the ritual and continual low dose has kept minor mood fluctuations and migraines at bay. I had one big pain crisis in two years which is better than most people who take drugs!
The reason I’m mentioning all this is because green tea isn’t the only delivery system and caffeine sensitive people may find shu puerh in particular more soothing to the stomach. All this is of course my own opinion based on my experience and success.

I am concerned about the radiation found in Japanese teas from the 2011 Fukushima nuclear disaster.

Are there any high Theanine/ caffine teas that are not from Japan ie Brazil. I like the vegetal taste in addition to the well being of the higher end Senchas.

Many thanks,
Tea fan

I had to zoom in to read, and still had to peer my eyes.

The post discusses Japanese teas and tradition, not Tibetan. You may not find it significant, but a Tibetan Buddhist or Zen Buddhist would recognize the vast difference between the traditions, nationalities and reason why tea is consumed.

The two elements in tea which help provide “mindful alertness” are L-theanine and caffeine. L-theanine promotes relaxation and when combined with caffeine, a stimulant, they create the perfect blend to help concentrate for a longer period of time.

The pill form may be of limited value as some studies have indicated it works best in conjunction with the catechins in tea.

Perhaps, you should have drank some tea, mulled over such a malicious thought before bringing it into observable reality, and settled upon refraining from intended destruction.
