Product is good and for the quantity and price it will last a long while, I've always liked True Start coffee since I believe back when I was training before the pandemic 2017 maybe 2016 was first time I tried it from holland and barret, but they discontinued its cool we can get it off Amazon even better free home delivery. I believe this has 0.6mg of caffeine per serving directly from the creators said, my guess serving size is 1 t-spoon 2g, but they can correct it in the questions and answers if they want. The taste is quite nice considering it doesn't have a lot of caffeine which is usually the main reasons I drink coffee and for the main caffeinated true start which is 75mg per 2g typically 1 t-spoon serving. So this particular one is best used near bedtime if you want a coffee taste with negligible caffeine. Dark chocolate at bedtime is what you want to avoid, thinking it has way more caffeine in dark chocolate than this decaf coffee is something to note when you're about to sleep. Like with all my reviews which are based on quality vs price I'd buy this again if it doesn't go too expensive, as my motto is If I can afford it and it's good quality I'll buy again and keep coming back for more Want to note I don't usually give products 5 stars, but other decaf coffees seem to bloat me and this one doesn't so well deserved score. The flavour takes a little hit compared to the yellow blue but still good with my taste buds and worth it for 1–2 hours before bedtime. Update- I said good value because it was 25 quid at the time of writing this review but now the price from trustart coffee is 29 quid, it's no longer good value so I had to remove a star for my honesty.
