↑About Teavana
Teavana is a brand of tea owned by the Starbucks corporation.
The brand started as a tea company based in Atlanta, GA. The Teavana Corporation was incorporated in 2003 and was run by CEO Andrew Mack, and CFO and Secretary Dan Glennon.[1] Following a 2011 IPO, Teavana was for a brief time a publicly traded corporation with stock symbol TEA on the New York Stock Exchange. The company was purchased by Starbucks in 2012 and has been owned by them since. In 2017 the company began the process of closing its in-person stores, and shortly after it closed its online store. During this process we posted an article discussing this process. The stores closed in a staggered fashion; some stayed open into 2018.
Some of Teavana's teas can still be purchased through Amazon, and some are still served in Starbucks. Teavana's website has removed the comprehensive information about their teas that they used to provide, and much of this information is no longer available. We have tried to maintain and archive what information we can so that people can retain a useful reference for this brand's products.
At its peak, Teavana sold loose tea both online and through their website, and had a few hundred retail stores, nearly all in high-end commercial shopping malls. Teavana sold many varieties of tea, scented and blended teas, and herbal teas. Teavana was best known for complex blends involving tea, rooibos, fruit, flowers, spices, yerba mate, and other ingredients. In addition to their blends, which included a large number of fruit teas, they also sold a number of pure teas. Teavana also carried a few organic teas.
SpecialTeas Acquisition
In 2005, the ST Acquisition Company, a corporation sharing an address with the Teavana Corporation, as well as sharing Dan Glennon as CFO and Andrew Mack as Director, purchased the Connecticut-based tea company SpecialTeas.[2] In January of 2011, SpecialTeas was closed, and their website was redirecting to Teavana's site.References:

Chamomile Blush will make one blush all right—not for the usual reasons, but from the shame or embarrassment of paying so much for such a weak, weird tea.
The stated ingredients are simple enough: chamomile, spearmint, rose, and lemongrass. The result is a disjointed, odd combination of flavors that, in my exp...
How can a green tea be radiant? Is it radioactive, glowing green? Fortunately, the answer is, "No. It's just a name."
This is another in a line of Teavana bagged teas that now come with fairly typical folded bag, string and tag, and is overpriced by a factor of two to three for what one gets, on most sites wher...
Going off the price listed on Amazon ($15/24-ct box as of this writing), this tea is not worth the trouble. After tasting it, I'm not sure I'll even try it for "free" again at a conference or hotel.
This is supposed to be a ginger- and peach-flavored green tea, which sounds like a good combination, and somewhat sm...
Teavana takes a blend of spearmint and peppermint, dashes in a dollop of lemon verbena, and offers it now in teabags. Given the apparently identical ingredients, I strongly suspect this is a renaming or reincarnation of the former "Mint Majesty Full Leaf Tea Sachets" rated here seven years ago by Bob Downs. It gave o...

Another bagged offering arrives from Teavana's latest comeback push, which finds its teas (including this one) in late 2024 in online stores like Wal-Mart, Target, Amazon, and even Staples (where the price was lowest as of this writing, but still around $12 for a 24-ct box).
I used an average of the retail prices ...
