Does decaf mean zero caffeine?
Just like decaf coffee, decaf tea does contain a small residual amount of caffeine. The caffeine content will depend on the company producing tea and the process they use, as well as on the original tea's caffeine content.

However, no decaffeination process is perfect, and all decaf tea loses some flavor. People who want a truly caffeine-free drink that resembles tea will need to drink naturally caffeine-free herbal teas.
