Orange

Orange (formerly “Original”) 75% Certified Organic. Light Roast – fruity, bright body.

This formula was developed to satisfy the demand for an unflavoured herbal coffee from people who relish the blackness of regular coffee. A hint of orange peel gives it a fruity top note enhanced with sweetness from dates and figs.

Caroline says:

“Being an herbal tea designer when I first created Teeccino, I couldn’t resist adding a hint of orange peel to the first flavour I created to taste like coffee.  Next, I blended in some dates and figs to produce a bit of sweetness that highlights those orange top notes.

“I called my new creation “Original” but over the years, we’ve found that coffee drinkers were confused by this name because they expected it to taste like regular coffee. Now, we’ve renamed it “Orange” which better reflects its citrus flavour profile.

“There is something too wonderful about the contrast between the intensity of a deep roast highlighted by the sparkle of sweet tanginess – well, you’ll just have to try it for yourself to see if you agree with me.

“If you don’t, and purity without complexity is your preference, try medium roasted Java that is slightly sweet or dark roasted French Roast without any sweetness at all for a flavour that takes like coffee, pure and simple.”

Testimonials/customer reviews:

Delicious and Satisfying.

By: Frederiksborg Horse Farm from Yale, Oklahoma on April 29, 2010

“We’ve been drinking (7 years) the original herbal coffee ever since our doctor said we should stop drinking caffeine. We make it for our friends and customers and they rave about flavour. ”

It’s amazing

By: Heather Gaines from Glendale, AZ on June 20, 2010

“This, to me, tastes just like coffee and has helped me to kick my caffeine addiction…thank you Teeccino!”

Better than Coffee

By: Pamela James from Kansas on August 2, 2010

“This was the only way I could cut the coffee habit. Your weaning instructions were just how I needed to go about it. All the other dry mixes, and substitutions never worked. Oh I liked them, but I’d still need my coffee. Now I don’t even want the coffee. I feel so much better and was able to lose that last 10 pounds! Thanks for such a wonderful product. I had no idea what havoc caffeine was wreaking on my weight and my health. I’ve been spreading the word about you. My son is now hooked too. He was a hard-core coffee drinker. Everytime he comes over to my house, he automatically starts up a pot of teeccino.”

Perfect for an occasional sweet tooth fix

By: Candy from Houston, TX on July 13, 2010

“I find this blend to be far to sweet for my taste, and the strong flavour of dates isn’t a plus. This does make a nice warm pot of drinks when my nieces are over and feeling all big girly with their coffee and deserts.”

I needed a healthy alternative

By: Tina Bush Jones from Wake Forest, NC on August 7, 2010

“In my quest to be a more healthy me, I realized I needed to find a good alternative for my morning coffee. I really love the flavour of coffee and I missed having that nice after dinner beverage. A nutrition specialist suggested I try Teecino and I am glad I did. I brew it at work and give samples to my caffeine addicted coworkers. I add a little soy or almond milk to it and it becomes a dessert beverage. I love you, Teecino!”

Great for alkaline diets or folks with acid reflux

By: Kitty from Apex, NC on June 23, 2010

“Love it with French Vanilla Creamer. Also introduced it to my brother when he developed cancer and needed to be an alkaline diet, and my friends who suffer from acid reflux. Awesome product.”

Found by happy accident

By: RSJ from TX on September 6, 2010

“My store stopped carrying my brand of decaf, and I grabbed a bag of Teecino without realizing it was a coffee substitute. I am SO GLAD I did! I can’t believe how good it is! I don’t drink caffeine anyway, but good decaf is hard to find. This stuff is delicious!”

Glad I found it

By: Lynn from Fort Worth,TX on July 24, 2010

“I found the original to be very satisfying. It really controls those cravings for something sweet at night.”

Love it!

By: Karen Baker from Waipahu, HI on November 27, 2010

“We have been drinking Teeccino for about 4 years now. We love it. We don’t miss “real” coffee and all the caffeine one bit! Actually real coffee tastes awful to us now.”
