The story begins with Steven Smith, a natural born teamaker from Portland, Oregon “since 1949.” First as co-founder of Stash, then as tea shaman of Tazo, Steve made a worldwide name for himself through his deep understanding of tea—culminating in this, his signature brand, concocted in 2009. Working closely with his wife, Kim, and a trusted team, Steve succeeded in making Smith the most uncommon name in tea with a curated line of flavors like nothing else in the world.
