This article reads like an advertisement, and I personally don't see how it's notable. At the very least, I think most of the page should be removed and rewritten, and in a strong sense the article should simply be deleted.
I've added some info about the company being sued by the widow of the founder. Put Yogi Tea into Nexis UK and that was the only non-vanity stuff I got. Hopefully the referencing is sufficient for you all. JamJar (talk) 09:50, 11 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I couldn't find sources to support this text, so have removed it and the related tag.
"The Yogi companies' global parent entity is a US Non-profit corporation."
"In the 1970s, students of Yogi Bhajan opened Golden Temple Vegetarian Restaurants in the United States, Canada and Europe. Through these restaurants, the first batches of Yogi Tea were sold to the public, and by 1984, the Yogi Tea Company was born. Over the next couple of years, the business grew to nationwide distribution, with three flavors of finely ground spices packaged in teabags. Then in 1988, Yogi Tea's team of herbalists expanded the line to include a number of formulas developed to address specific health needs."
I also removed the following text because the source used don't mention Yogi Tea.
"The tea was a blend of five traditional Ayurvedic spices: cardamom seed, cinnamon bark, clove bud, ginger root and black pepper. Ayurvedic medicine holds that this combination of spices has unique, healthful properties, so they are still included in many current tea formulas." petrarchan47คุก04:12, 17 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
The establishment of the company currents appears to be AFTER East West Tea Company LLC bought it. This does not make sense. I've been trying to work this one out but I'm not much clearer after trying to find alternative sources online! Any thoughts on this?
"Yogi Tea was established in 1984 by Yogi Bhajan, a Kundalini yoga instructor and purported sexual assailant whose students named the tea brand. Bhajan formulated the tea blend's original recipe which is based on Ayurvedic medicine. It consists of cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, cloves and black pepper.
