Herbal Teas

Herbal tea is made from many plants using not just the leaves, but also the flowers, roots, bark and seeds. Blending the flavors of different herbs results in an infinite variety of healthful taste sensations, and in fact, this exploration is one of the greatest pleasures of working with herbs. The majority of herbal teas naturally contain no caffeine at all, which accounts in part for their mellow, soothing personality—and their growing popularity in today’s hectic, high-pressure world.

In 1969, Mo Siegel and John Hay discovered a harvest of wild herbs growing around Boulder, Colorado. They began packaging the herbs in hand-sewn muslin bags, and the first Celestial Seasonings herb teas were sold to a local health food store. Although herb teas had been widely consumed in Europe for centuries, in America they were perceived as having only medicinal significance. Celestial Seasonings introduced herb teas to Americans as flavorful, healthy beverages—virtually creating the herbal tea industry in the United States.

Today, our more than 75 unique herbal teas are crafted with high-quality ingredients from more than 35 countries around the globe. Every tea we make is truly an adventure for the senses!
