No. Moringa is a herbal infusion made from the leaves of the moringa tree, not from the tea plant, and is naturally caffeine-free.
Mild, green and slightly sweet, somewhere between a light green tea and spinach broth, without bitterness. It blends well with lemongrass, ginger, mint and tulsi; many brands sell both a pure and a blended version.
Yes. Moringa oleifera leaves are listed in the EU Novel Food Catalogue as not novel because of their history of consumption, and the UK takes the same position, so moringa tea can be sold as a herbal infusion. Health claims are a separate matter: none are authorised for moringa, so labels should describe taste and nutrient content only.
