Teas High in L-Theanine

If you’re a tea drinker, you’re probably familiar with the soothing feeling that accompanies a good cup of tea. Tea made from the camellia sinensis plant contains l-theanine, a beneficial compound that helps to soothe stress and enhance relaxation and wellbeing. Teas like matcha, shade-grown green teas, and first flush teas contain particularly high levels of l-theanine.
