NEWS: TAZO® Announces Launch of Camp TAZO Under New "Brew the Unexpected" Campaign

Today, TAZO unveils plans to launch its first overnight camp experience for grownups, helmed by guest Camp Director and beloved Drag Star Alyssa Edwards. Under the new "Brew the Unexpected" campaign, inspired by the brand's spirit of exploration and discovery, TAZO is encouraging people to get out of their comfort zones and seek out the unexpected in new ways. The impetus behind "Brew the Unexpected" comes from the brand's late founder, Steven Smith, who dedicated his life traveling the world to uncover and create unique blends of tea with surprise and delight in every cup.

In a new survey, TAZO uncovered that three out of four people want to get out of their comfort zones but are unsure of where to begin, and more than 70 percent regret not trying something new versus trying and failing. With the launch of Camp TAZO, an immersive experience taking place in early 2019, TAZO is offering deserving campers the chance to break out of their comfort zones. Camp TAZO will feature a full schedule of classic camp activities, curated by Alyssa Edwards, complete with unexpected TAZO twists to help guests embrace their unexpected sides.

"Brew the Unexpected is inspired by the legacy of our late founder Steven Smith, an industry pioneer who transformed an otherwise sleepy world of tea and infused a sense of exploration and excitement within each of the blends he created," said George Hamilton, Tea Director at Unilever. "The campaign will take people on a journey of self-discovery that reignites the curiosity that lives within each of us — beginning with each cup of TAZO tea."

TAZO has partnered with Justin Dwayne Lee Johnson, whose drag persona Alyssa Edwards stars in RuPaul's Drag Raceand the new series Dancing Queen, to kick off the inaugural camp weekend. As Alyssa, Justin has been a trailblazer in the entertainment industry through the world of drag, and will draw from his unique journey of personal transformation to help camp-goers upend their current routines.

"I'm living proof that amazing things can happen when you find the courage to break out of your comfort zone," said Justin. "Working with TAZO, I look forward to sharing my story and getting to help other people take the first steps toward discovering the unexpected in their own lives."
