'''Bold text'''TAZO is the nickname given to a Pakistani girl that's living in the United States by her best friend. She is the m to my m, the pea to my pod, the speakers to my computer, and the shoe to my sock. (That basically rhymes.) She's pretty cool. If you know her, you're amazing.

Tazo Tea Company is a tea manufacturer and distributor based in Portland, Oregon, known for their "New age" style marketing and product labeling. For example, every box of tea is blessed by a certified tea shaman.

Tazo Tea was founded in 1994 by Steve Smith along with his business partners Stephen Lee and Tom Mesher. Lee was the former CEO of the Stash Tea Company founded by himself and Smith in 1972. Stash was sold in the fall of 1993 to Yamamotoyama, a Japanese tea company.

Smith used his corporate connections within the food services industry to convince many restaurants, food stores, and tea houses to carry the new Tazo Teas. Smith approached Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz in 1998 seeking further investment partners.

The company was purchased by Starbucks in 1999 for $8.1 Million USD.
