    Outstanding Flavor

    Once again Metolius has hit the ball out of the park with this outstanding black tea. It's flavor is unprecedented. Smooth, clear tea with notes of a cool summer day.

    Thank you for the kind words, Virginia, and the time you took to leave this review. We appreciate you!

    Metolius Artisan Tea Gold Needle tea and Black and Gold tea

    Being from Texas, I drink a lot of iced tea…so I can appreciate the difference between good iced tea and great iced tea. Metolius Artisan teas, when brewed according to directions on the package, are consistently fresher tasting, they are crystal clear, and they are never bitter. The iced teas I brew from Metolius Artisan teas taste better than the iced teas brewed at Pappadeaux’s restaurants (the gold standard for iced tea in Texas)!

    Tom, Thank you so much for the kind words and taking the time to leave this review. We appreciate you!

    Lovely tea!

    Very lovely tea. Warm, toasty, slightly sweet (honey notes?). Really enjoying it.

    Marilyn, We're so glad you discovered our Gold Needles. This tea is a real treasure. Thank you for taking the time to leave this review. We appreciate you!
