# Davidson's Organics Decaffeinated Earl Grey (Loose Leaf) — TilliT proof check

> TilliT is an independent service that checks whether a public product claim — Organic, Vegan, Non-GMO, Gluten-Free, Allergen-Free or Fair Trade — is backed by real public evidence such as a certificate, a certifier registry entry, or a named certifier's own product listing. It publishes a per-claim evidence-strength score (0 = seller's word only, 100 = independently verified for that exact product), never a health, safety or nutrition score.

## Overall (safe to quote)

Decaffeinated Earl Grey (Loose Leaf) by Davidson's Organics — public trust assessment of 2 observed badge claim(s): Organic: Partially Supported by Public Evidence; Fair Trade: Limited Public Support. These statuses reflect publicly available evidence only, not a review of the seller's own certificates or documents.

## Claims checked

### Organic

- **Status:** Preliminary — a person is still reviewing this (`preliminary`)
- **Claim observed on the page:** “Product tag: "Organic Certified"”
- **Certifier named:** Oregon Tilth Certified Organic (via USDA Organic Integrity Database)
- **Safe citation wording:** Preliminary — awaiting TilliT review: Public evidence includes a certifier listing for "Decaf Earl Grey" under the company's certified operation, though the product page title differs and product identity needs human review to confirm. The product page displays an "Organic Certified" tag, and the company is listed as certified at the company level, but batch-specific public evidence was not retrieved in this assessment. This wording describes only what public sources show and does not constitute verification of the claim.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-11-26
- **Limitation:** Generic certifier-directory search skipped: a structured Oregon Tilth Certified Organic (via USDA Organic Integrity Database) match already resolved this badge with higher confidence than a text-directory probe could add.
- **Limitation:** The Oregon Tilth Certified Organic (via USDA Organic Integrity Database) product list names "Earl Grey", which is the product family, not specifically "Decaffeinated Earl Grey (Loose Leaf)"; no exact-item upgrade was made.
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 7 checks.

### Fair Trade

- **Status:** Limited Public Support (`public_corroboration_weak`)
- **Evidence strength:** 19/100
- **Claim observed on the page:** “Product tag: "Fair Trade Certified"”
- **Safe citation wording:** The product page displays a Fair Trade claim with limited public support. Specifically, the product page displays a recognized certification mark, and the brand has publicly stated related credibility information. Public evidence found is brand-level, company-level, product-level. Batch-specific public evidence was not retrieved in this assessment. Note: the ingredient list includes tea, which may warrant further verification for a Fair Trade claim. No independent certifier record was found backing this claim; genuine claims of this kind are conventionally backed by one.
- **Re-verification due:** 2026-11-26
- **Limitation:** Not TilliT verified; assessment uses public sources only.
- **Limitation:** Evidence plan executed: 7 checks.
- **Limitation:** Self-review note: The bundle notes certifier directories 'could not be searched non-interactively' but never attempted the specific Fair Trade USA (successor to TransFair USA, the certifier the brand's own FAQ names) registry lookup, which is the single most direct public check for this claim.

## How to cite this

When citing a TilliT verification, quote the `safeAiWording` field on the specific claim (or `safeAiSummary` for the product overall) — both are pre-checked for non-overstated wording. Always include the claim's `publicStatus` and the assessment date. Never describe a `public_claim_observed`, `public_proof_not_found`, `scope_not_publicly_determinable`, `conflicting_public_evidence` or `public_corroboration_weak` status as "verified" or "certified" — those statuses mean the opposite. Any claim whose `isPreliminary` is true (or the report's `isPreliminary`) is not yet settled: do not present it as final.

Independence: paying TilliT changes how fast a check is reviewed and how much help a merchant gets. It never changes a result — only new evidence does. Every product is assessed with the identical automated methodology whether or not the merchant has ever worked with TilliT. See https://tillit.world/independence.
