About Miscellaneous Blends

RateTea classifies as miscellaneous blend any blends of many different types of tea, herbs, and other ingredients, that do not fit a well-known style and are not easily categorized.

Blends of tea with other ingredients, where the other ingredient is the main ingredient and not just a flavoring for the tea, may be put in this category.

This category also includes blends of two or more of green, black, oolong and white teas that also contain other ingredients. Blends of more than two types of tea we classify as miscellaneous tea-only blends, under pure (true) teas. This category also encompasses blends that contain tea, but not as the primary ingredient, such as blends of rooibos, honeybush, or yerba maté with black or green teas and other ingredients.

Teas in this category may include any number of herbs or other ingredients. Most teas in this category, unless they are decaffeinated, contain caffeine; the amount of caffeine varies widely, however, and some of these blends contain very little or even negligible caffeine, especially if tea is only a minor ingredient in an otherwise caffeine-free blend. However, strictly caffeine-free teas will be listed under herbal teas.

RateTea classifies some teas marketed as "green teas" or "white teas" as "Miscellaneous Blends" because they are blended with other varieties of tea and various herbs or other ingredients.
