At Kusmi Tea, we have chosen to incorporate caffeine in the form of an extract to concentrate all its benefits. Used for centuries in many cultures, caffeine is recognized for its natural stimulating effects on energy!

Theine vs. caffeine, what’s the difference? They are actually the same molecule, but absorbed differently by the body depending on the beverage! Coffee delivers a quick and intense effect, while tea releases caffeine more gradually thanks to tannins, providing a gentler and longer-lasting energy boost.

Today, caffeine is one of the most studied natural active ingredients for its effects on energy and alertness, with more than 90 clinical studies conducted on adults. Among these, 86% highlight a positive effect on the sensation of energy, alertness, and reaction speed!

To ensure the quality of our formulation, we collaborate with a laboratory specialized in plant analysis, led by a pharmacist expert in pharmacology. Regular analyses monitor the presence and correct dose of active ingredients to guarantee the full effectiveness of Energy Ritual.

Frequently asked questions

How exactly does this product work and how does it act on my body?

Throughout the day, our body produces a molecule called adenosine. When it attaches to certain receptors in the brain, it signals the body that it is time to slow down, which promotes feelings of fatigue and sleepiness. Caffeine works by blocking adenosine receptors, which helps you feel more awake and alert.

Is the effect on my body immediate?

After consumption, caffeine acts quickly: the first effects appear in 15 to 30 minutes, with an optimal effect around 30 to 60 minutes, depending on each individual's sensitivity.

At what time of day can one drink Energy Ritual?

Energy Ritual can accompany you at different times of the day: in the morning to start the day off right, after lunch for a boost energy or even in the evening to last until the end of the night. On the other hand, it is not recommended to consume Rituel Énergie in the hours before bedtime, depending on each individual's sensitivity to the effects of caffeine.

Can I combine Energy Ritual with other energy drinks?

Energy Ritual contains caffeine and has been designed to provide a suitable source of energy when consumed as recommended (1 cup/day). When combined with other energy drinks, be careful not to exceed the recommended daily intake. If you are sensitive to caffeine or in doubt, do not hesitate to seek advice from a healthcare professional.

Does Energy Ritual taste like coffee?

No, Energy Ritual is a real alternative to coffee, designed to retain its benefits while offering a different experience. On the palate, the recipe reveals an intense vegetal attack before giving way to delicate cereal and roasted notes which settle in with elegance.
