Argo started with 35 teas from around the globe, including black tea, green tea and chamomile tisane as well as exotic teas. Starbucks had a total 2010 income of $9 billion, while the complete tea trade was $7.7 billion, including $443 million by the top 6 U.S. The mint helps refresh the palate, while the coffee and tea present a caffeine enhance. The growth of teas has brought on Starbucks to drop the word espresso from its title and construct the Tazo brand.

Argo Tea signed a licensing settlement in October 2016 with Caribou Coffee to open co-branded stores. By early October 2011, Argo claimed 26 areas in four cities (Chicago, New York, Boston and St. Louis) and distribution in 3,000 grocery stores across the country including Whole Foods, Safeway and Dominick's.
