- Keep - Satisfies WP:NCOMPANY - see [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7], [8], [9], [10]— Preceding unsigned comment added by Dan arndt ( talk • contribs) 09:51, 11 October 2017 (UTC)
- Keep. Mindless nomination by an obviously incompetent editor. Definitely not G11 material. Not all of the links posted by Dan arndt are credible or significant enough to establish notability (like the blog post by the founder himself), but some of them ( [11], [12], [13]) are. Edit: Just a quick Google search will reveal many others, like [14], [15], [16], [17] etc. I think the nominator should either withdraw their nomination, or this AfD should be speedily closed, as it is nonsensical (and looking at the nominator's talk page and COI concerns, it could have been made in bad faith, possibly as an attempt to harm their competition or something).— J. M. ( talk) 12:50, 11 October 2017 (UTC)

- Keep - One of the world's most famous brands of tea, and the biggest seller in some countries, 6th largest in the world. No idea why anyone would nominate this for AFD. Probably a demonic coffee drinker. Deathlibrarian ( talk) 11:11, 13 October 2017 (UTC)
