About Moody Teas

Moody Teas was founded by Nora Eagan and John Nelson with a simple but powerful belief: everyone deserves access to good tea that helps them feel their best. What started as a shared love of tea and wellness quickly became a mission to make high-quality, mood-boosting blends more accessible — without the luxury price tag or intimidating tea culture.

As LGBTQ+ business owners, Nora and John set out to build a brand rooted in care, inclusivity, and community. Each Moody Teas blend is thoughtfully crafted with premium loose leaf tea, organic herbs, and functional ingredients chosen to support real moods — whether that’s energy, focus, calm, or rest. Our teas aren’t about perfection or rigid routines; they’re designed for real life, real feelings, and real budgets.

Accessibility is at the heart of everything we do. We prioritize affordable pricing, clear ingredient transparency, and showing up directly in our community through farmers’ markets, pop-ups, and local partnerships. By meeting people where they are, we’re able to share tea in spaces where high-quality wellness products are often hard to find.

Giving back is just as important as what’s in the cup. Moody Teas is committed to supporting our community, uplifting small businesses, and creating spaces where everyone feels welcome. We believe tea can be both a daily ritual and a form of care — a small moment of pause that helps people reconnect with themselves and each other.

At the end of the day, Moody Teas isn’t just about tea. It’s about building a more inclusive, intentional, and joyful way to take care of ourselves — one steep at a time.
