I actually looked this up a long time ago, but I don't recall the specific measurements. Decaf coffee does contain caffeine though. LIke I said, I don't recall the exact measurement, but it's such a small amount, it's what I'd call "trace" amounts of caffeine. It'd be like the amount of alcohol in tiramisu - it's just a trace, and you're not exactly going to get drunk off of it.
If you have a caffeine allergy or something, you might be concerned...but otherwise, if you're just caffeine sensitive (like me) and prefer decaf....you won't notice any caffeine within.

Yes, the previous poster is right... there are trace amounts of caffiene in decaf coffee because the beans naturally have caffiene in them, and they go through a process to "decaffenate" them, which leaves some residue behind. So if you are sensitive to caffiene, this may be a drink to avoid or still limit to the morning hours.
An alternative would be tea without caffiene. There is actually no caffiene here naturally.
