There is a term used mainly for Pu-Erh teas - being tea drunk. That describes literal caffeine high invoked by ingesting a lot of caffeine relatively quickly.
Speaking from experience - the worst that had happened for me was not being able to sleep the night after drinking a lot of strong gong-fu brewed Pu-Erh teas.
Yep, also had this. I'm generally insensitive to caffeine, especially in tea, but I remember my hands shaking even, when I drank a lot of gong-fu brewed Pu-Erh in quick succession with an empty stomach.
An empty stomach makes it even worse imho
Yeah, that was probably the main culprit. But thankfully now I know better.
