Is there a reason to believe the L-Theanine was a factor there? What you describe sounds exactly like the normal effects of caffeine.

L-Theanine makes caffeine's effects last much longer.

As gp said, 1 espresso, 6 hours.

For me it also cuts down the side effects, all around a very useful substance.
