I live close to the Celestial Seasonings factory where they develop and mix the teas they sell. I can buy a box of tea from their factory shop for three quarters of what they'd charge in the nearest grocery store. I highly recommend the tour if you ever find yourself in Boulder with time to kill during the afternoon.
No, they have the ingredients sealed off from each other really well, otherwise they start tasting like each other. Especially the mint room. Mint will take over everything.
That's because mint is awesome! But that's alright. If you've ever been to Hershey Pennsylvania the whole town smells of chocolate. I was kind of hoping a tea factory would do the same.
I did once as a child, and I know what you mean. But Hershey doesn't have to worry about chocolate absorbing the scent of chocolate to alter the flavor. Celestial Seasoning has a vested interest in making sure its Sleepytime Tea doesn't taste like Lemon Zinger. ;)

If you get close to the factory does it start to smell like tea? That would be amazing.
