Moody Teas

Moody Teas was built on a simple idea — everyone deserves access to good tea that helps them feel their best. That’s why we keep our blends affordable and show up in neighborhoods where quality tea is hard to find.

JOHN's FAVORITES

These are John's Go-To's

I don’t mess around when it comes to tea. These are the ones I keep coming back to—whether I need something bold to wake me up, smooth to keep me steady, or just a cup that makes me feel good. Expect deep flavors, a little bit of chaos, and zero nonsense. If I’m drinking it, you know it’s solid.

Nora's Everyday Picks

I like my tea like I like my mornings—balanced, intentional, and with just the right amount of indulgence. These blends are the ones I reach for when I want something comforting, energizing, or just straight-up delicious. Expect smooth flavors, thoughtful pairings, and zero regrets.
