Special Blends

Special Blends contains all the teas that don’t nicely fit into our other categories. This includes blends that have several types of tea as well as teas that we think deserve some extra attention. We’ve separated our Special Blends into several categories by type.

Energy
This category includes our extremely popular Ed’s Energy Tea, now called Himalayan High Energi-Tea.

Chai
Chai is always popular in Seattle, and almost everywhere else. Our dry chai blends can be found here.

After years of finding sources, researching blends, and working through recipe after recipe, the Teacup is honored to present our very own chai blend. Created completely in house from the best (and organic whenever possible) herbs and teas, this chai is a traditional blend of organic black tea, cardamom, cinnamon, ginger, clove, and black pepper.

Provence Vanilla Rooibos

Customer requests have a huge impact on the Teacup's tea list and this tea is a perfect example. After being asked time and time again for more rooibos teas, the Teacuppers spent months developing what we think is the perfect vanilla-scented rooibos blend. Blended with not only the famous red leaf from South Africa and vanilla, but touches of lavender and chamomile and just a hint of hazelnut. We think you'll find this the smoothest, most pleasing cup of rooibus tea you have ever had. A Teacup special, dedicated to all our customers that take the time to let us know what they are looking for.
