My sister and I went to take the Celestial Seasonings tour today. The top picture is a glimpse of the actual factory where the tea is packaged. The bottom is just from the outside of the building.
I was impressed with the amount of product such an incredibly small factory turns out. Not only that, but just operating five days a week -- the factory is closed on weekends. They go out of their way to sell you on the "Celestial Seasonings was started by hippies" story, and for all of the talk the operation still doesn't feel as corporate as I thought it would.
People had always told me about how hardcore the peppermint/spearmint room was -- the room where they keep all of the not yet packaged mint tea -- it's minty all right, but not to the eye-watering or hard-to-breathe level.
