Founded in 1972, the company derives its name from an entertaining aspect of tea folklore. In earlier centuries, tea was a valuable commodity traditionally transported by clipper ship. The ship's captain often was presented with some of the finest teas for his personal use. This supply was his "stash," stowed carefully as his "private reserve." Today, the term still is used to denote anything put away carefully because of its preciousness. Stash Premium Decaf Vanilla Chai Tea puts natural vanilla into delicious chai tea to add rich and creamy flavor notes. Add a splash of milk and sugar for a luscious, dessert-like drink. The tea is naturally decaffeinated, letting you savor this tea any time of day. For its decaffeinated teas, Stash uses an advanced completely natural European process. This process removes 99.5 percent of the caffeine, leaving the tea leaves with all the flavor, color and aroma you expect from Stash premium teas. Stash Tea has been committed to providing premium quality teas and an unsurpassed tea drinking experience. Stash begins with simply excellent tea leaves from the world's premier tea gardens and all natural botanical ingredients gathered from around the world. Meticulous blending and tasting of every tea ensures you will enjoy full flavor in every cup. | | | Features: | |

 This Tea is Even Winning over Non-Tea DrinkersJan 16, 2007
By Tea Lover
This is the first product that I have ever felt strongly enough to write a review on. This tea has definately gotten some undeserved bad reviews. It is a Chai Tea!! It is supposed to be spicey, have a fairly strong flavor, and you are supposed to add sweetner and milk to it. This VANILLA DECAF CHAI is fantastic! My kids love it, my guests love it, and I love it! Everytime I serve it, everyone wants to know where to get it and how I made it. Even non-tea drinkers get hooked on it. It is wonderful cold or hot, and has a lighter spice flavor than most Chai teas, but they added a touch of vanilla instead. This tea really is one that you can enjoy everyday. It really is worth a try.

Great version of Chai teaOct 29, 2009
By Nicole Johnson
This is far and away my favorite Chai tea to drink. It is meant to be served with some type of sweetener and milk (which it recommends on the box). I prefer to standard Chai. I have this sitting next to a box of Tazo Chai, and I am always grabbing a bag of the Stash Decaf Vanilla Chai.

 Interesting, definitely needed milkApr 07, 2006
By Kurt A. Johnson
The Stash Tea Company was founded in 1972, in Tigard, Oregon, a suburb of Portland, and was originally operated out of a Victorian-style house. But, right from the beginning the company focused on making only premium teas. That commitment to quality has propelled Stash Tea to the position of one of America's largest tea companies.
Among Stash Tea's many infusions is Decaf Vanilla Chai Tea. "Chai" comes from the Hindi word for tea, but in the West it is interpreted as Masala Chai, Indian spiced tea. Well, in fact this tea is an interesting version of Indian spiced tea, based on a mix of naturally decaffeinated Indian black teas, spiced with ginger, cassia, allspice, clove, nutmeg and vanilla.
Now, as you might expect from that description, this is a spicy tea. The different spices add up to a unique smell and taste that is not for everyone. Overall, I thought that the taste was interesting, but found the cassia and allspice to be too dominant. I added some milk, which helped smooth out the taste, and made for a much more enjoyable drink.
So, let me just say that this is an interesting tea, with a unique, spicy taste. If you want to try something quite different than the simple black teas you grew up one, then you might want to give it a whirl.
First Time Tea DrinkerMay 05, 2011
By Discerning Buyer
I never drank tea before, then a friend bought me a Chai Tea latte. I liked it. I didn't know what brand would taste the most like what was bought from this coffee/tea stand. I liked that Stash has a decaf, because I intended to have it as an evening drink so I went with that.
Day one, I didn't steep it long, yet it tasted very strong. I added skim milk as that is what I use, which did not help it along since it's not rich, also I added sugar as it's supposed to be a sweet drink.
Day 2, I bought regular soy milk, no low fat or no vanilla soy since the tea has vanilla. I didn't steep the tea as long, I used a bit more water, then added 1/4 of a cup of soy milk along with 2 good sized teaspoons of sugar. It tasted perfect! I think I could probably reuse the tea bag today for my 3rd cup!
Reviews can be off when people do not use a product properly, and maybe other users are used to a different brand, as I have seen other brands with different ingredients. I'm happy with it, to where I don't feel the need anymore to try another tea, since at first, I thought I may have to. I have a local store that sells items at a good price. 18 bags were $2.69, so I have no reason to buy it in bulk online. I think I'd save 8 cents on a 3 month supply, then there's shipping.

I was so very pleased to find Stash Vanilla Decaf Chai as I always search store shelves and can't find it again. Now I have enough for the year probably....but will enjoy every cup and may even share some!
