Yes, but not much: Green tea contains L-theanine so yes, any supplement with green tea leaves contain L-theanine, but you may not get much from a supplement with green tea leaves. A typical cup of green tea has about 8 mg of L-theanine and the dose used in L-theanine extracts is about 200 mg. See http://tinyurl.com/yb8v7dva and https://selfhacked.com/blog/theanine/
