Ants in sealed container of tea

Ants in a sealed container of Republic of tea with expiration of 2027 that I had to cut seal to open… I called…they made no attempt to replace or make right. So I returned to store. … republic of tea was sold in 2020 to a private equity firm …obviously not caring about product anymore

A lot of great teas

A lot of great teas. They ship safely and I like that they give samples in each order. I do wish it wasn't always the same samples, but it's free so I'm not complaining.
I did find that a couple teas taste different when you buy the can instead of the refill bag. I'm guessing it has something to do with the tea bags being loose in the bag??? One specifically is very different tasting, Lean Green tastes great in refill, but terrible in the can (too much cinnamon), weird right?
Anyway, one time a tea I'd ordered was missing, but they sent a new one right away, and it wasn't a whole big hassle, love that!
My recommendations are Ginger Peach Chocolate Truffle, Lean Green (refills), and Moringa

Great tea experience.

Never a bad experience. I am a regular consumer of their Earl Greyer tea bags and the seasonal Peppermint Bark. I buy them in bulk and keep them available all year round. In addition to those regulars, I love the rooibos teas and like to try their samples. Always quick shipping, nice samples and great service.
