Meet Steven Smith,Teamaker

Our founder wasn’t born with a silver spoon in his mouth. But he used one every day to change the way Americans drink tea forever. Quietly humorous and charismatic, Steve got his first taste of the world’s second-most-consumed beverage (after water) at his grandmother’s house in Portland, Oregon. After high and Vietnam, he got into natural foods and co-founded Stash, the world’s first specialty tea company.

From Stash, he conjured Tazo — “the reincarnation of tea” — a mind-blowing mix of Merlin the Magician meets Marco Polo. Finally selling Tazo to Starbucks, Steve retired temporarily and moved his young family to France. But it wasn't long he had another a-ha moment.

HAUTE TEA COUTURE.

Enchanted by the friendships he enjoyed with his neighborhood chocolatier, baker and perfumier in Avignon, Steve emailed his creative team back home: “I have an idea for another tea company. But this time, we’re going to do it small, buy only the best tea on the market and blend it with total transparency.”

And so, after a year of scarves and two-hour lunches, he moved back to Portland and once again picked up his favorite tasting spoon. With characteristic humility, he rejected the title of tea master, and chose to be simply “teamaker”. Which is how, in 2009, the signature blends of Steven Smith Teamaker were born in a Northwest Portland blacksmith’s shop.

Smith is the what if teamaker, made for what if people.

To elevate every moment above the mere so what, we blend craft and creativity with uncompromising good taste. What if wakes us up in the morning and keeps us dreaming all day—forever looking for ways to bring you a truly exceptional tea experience.

In this spirit, we handcraft tiny batches of exquisite full-leaf teas and botanicals. Nurture deep-rooted friendships with the tea world's finest suppliers. Work happily in concert with artisans who will not settle for less. The timeless gift of what if created Smith in the first place, and it still guides us today.

Great answers flow from this one little question. Raise your cup, raise your sights, and enjoy.

Inside the Smith Sachet

Our sachets are created from a plant-based material that is 100% commercially compostable and uses the same full leaf quality tea as our loose blends. This makes it a sachet with serious cachet.

BAI MU DAN (White Peony) – Bai Mu Dan, or White Peony tea, is produced in the Northern Fujian Province of China using either the bud or top two leaves and bud of the tea bush. Pale in color and delicate in flavor, white tea is slightly nutty and floral with a clean, lingering aftertaste.

JASMINE PEARLS – Made from just the bud of the tea bush, this lovely green tea is harvested in early spring and pan-fired to neutralize the oxidizing enzyme. It is then hand rolled into tiny pearls and placed amidst just-picked jasmine blossoms for scenting, up to four times. A transcendent experience.

LONG JING (Dragonwell) – Pan-fired in a hot wok and flattened by hand, Dragonwell, also known as "Long Jing," is for many the most famous green tea. The best comes from Hangzhou, near the spring where a dragon was said to dwell. We prize its pale emerald color and slightly sweet, chestnut-like taste.

SENCHA – Slender needle-like leaves produce a deeply vegetal taste and aroma, ripe with notes of toasted rice and nori. Harvested in the spring to early summer in the Schizuoka Prefecture, the leaves are steamed to perfection to stop oxidation of the leaf, as well as to lock in their deep jade color and rich flavor.

ASSAM – The legendary breakfast tea from the upper Assam valley of India. Full-flavored, rich and chewy with notes of caramel and malt, this tea is bright and coppery in the cup and makes for a great wake-up any time of day.

DARJEELING 1ST FLUSH (Available Mid-June) – First flush begins in late March and lasts about 30 days, during which time each bush is plucked every seven days. Lightly oxidized compared to later flushes, first flushes are lighter in body and greenish in color, with notes of muscatel grape, burnt sugar and sage.

DARJEELING 2ND FLUSH (Available Mid-June) – This tea begins high in the Himalayan foothills in late May and lasts about 30 days where the tea bushes are plucked every seven days. Teas produced during this period have a fuller flavor than teas from first flush, with notes of muscatel grape, wintergreen and sage.

CEYLON DIMBULA – Sri Lankan Ceylon Dimbula has a reddish amber color in the cup, with a medium to full body, slightly fruity flavor with mineral notes. Often used in Earl Grey and other blends, the best pure Dimbulas, like this one, are magnificent on their own.

KEEMUN – Hao Ya is one of the finest grades of Keemun tea from the mountainous Anhui Province in China. It has a thin, wiry, tightly twisted leaf with a slightly smoky flavor and aroma. Excellent straight or with milk and sugar.

GOLDEN OOLONG – Grown high at the edge of Southwestern China using the famous Green Heart cultivar from Taiwan, this masterfully oxidized oolong brings notes of honey, malt and toasted coconut that make it a dark and rare delight to drink from first cup to last.

directions:

Measure matcha and ginger powder and sift into a 12 oz latte cup or bowl. Add 1 oz of water at 175˚F to create a concentrate. Mix with a matcha whisk or electric frother until all matcha is incorporated. Add simple syrup to taste. We recommend 5/8 oz. Steam milk of your choice and pour into mixture.

ICED MATCHA LATTE

1 teaspoon matcha (or 1 tablespoon if using sweetened matcha), 1 oz room temp. water, 8-9 oz milk of choice

Measure matcha and sift into 12 oz latte cup. Add room temp filtered water to create a concentrate.* Mix with electric frother or Matcha whisk until incorporated. Add simple syrup to taste. Pour 8-9 oz of cold milk over ice and add matcha concentrate. Stir and enjoy.

*Note: The purpose of the water is to dilute the matcha and whisk it into a liquid-like paste. The water does not need to be hot for this extraction to work. Therefore our preference is to use cool water so that the ice will not melt and dilute our iced matcha beverage.

Measure matcha and sift into a bowl. Add 2 oz of room temp filtered water and whisk until incorporated to create a concentrate. Add ice to glass and pour matcha concentrate. Add the oat milk mixture on top and gently stir to swirl. Garnish with an edible flower and enjoy.
