Sip Without Limits: Your Tannin-Free Tea House Passport
Imagine wandering through Kyoto's bamboo-lined tea houses or London's cozy parlors, only to hesitate at every menu. For tannin-sensitive travelers, the world's rich tea culture can feel off-limits. Tannins—natural compounds in tea that trigger migraines, digestive discomfort, or iron absorption issues—often lurk unnoticed in descriptions. But with mm food, you unlock every menu safely.
Why Tannins Challenge Tea Lovers
Many traditional teas contain tannins:
- Black teas (Assam, Earl Grey)
- Green teas (Matcha, Sencha)
- Oolong varieties Herbal blends may also hide tannic ingredients like hibiscus or rosehips. While menus rarely flag tannins, reactions can ruin your experience within hours.
