## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this tea have caffeine?**
A: I bought this as a gift for a friend from Persia. My understanding is that one of the ingredients is Earl Grey which is a caffeinated tea. Best wishes.

**Q: Is it organic? It says “highest quality” so I can’t imagine it’s not though it doesn’t explicitly say it is.**
A: It doesn’t say so on the box
