    3rd reorder

    I had this tea in a small coffee shop in Eastern Washington. The second time I returned I copied the name and ordered online. 2 ounces went fast and then I ordered the pound. It is my absolute favorite.

    Hi Alisa - thank you for your kind words about Black and Gold. We are very intentional with our sourcing and how we craft our teas and so it feels good for the efforts to be recognized!
