Stash Tea Company is a privately-held tea company headquartered in Tigard, Oregon, a suburb of Portland. Stash Tea originally operated out of an old Portland Victorian style house, supplying loose herbal teas and bulk herbs to natural food stores. Starting in 1972, the company broadened its focus to include bagged teas and then began to sell a full line of traditional, specialty blend and herbal teas directly to fine restaurants and through a mail order catalog to consumers.<ref>"Stash Tea: Company History". http://www.stashtea.com/stashco.htm.
