Grumble re Caribou Coffee

As far as I can tell, Caribou Coffee does not carry any sort of plain tea. They have mango and earl grey and spice flavored black teas; they have a citrus-flavored green tea; they have a total of seven entries for "tea" on the menu board, including herbal, but when I asked about unflavored tea I was offered Earl Grey and grumpily explained that it's flavored.

Starbucks' "Awake" is an English breakfast with about the subtlety of a brick, but it's drinkable. The spice tea at Caribou turned out not to taste of tea, the spices were so strong.
