Honest Tea
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Honest Tea is a beverage company based in Bethesda, Maryland, with plants in New Kensington, Pennsylvania (outside of Pittsburgh) and Watsonville, California. Honest Tea was founded in 1998 by Seth Goldman (now President and CEO, or as he calls it, "Tea-EO") and Barry Nalebuff, to sell "bottled iced tea that tastes like tea"; a less-sweetened alternative to sugary soft-drinks and low-quality bottled tea. They are best known for their line of bottled tea products, but they also produce tea bags and other bottled drinks in their Honest Ade line. All of their products are certified kosher and USDA organic, and some are fair trade certified. Honest Tea is a privately held, rather than a publicly-traded company.
