And depending on what you mean by cold-hardy, Meyers Lemons aren't bad, and my little potted one has been left out past the "killing frost" most years. The tag claimed it was hardy to 20F. The ones I tasted growing in California were much better than the ones I grow, but mine make a fine lemon custard for pie.

When I said cold hardy don't taste very good I was referring to trifoliate orange crosses like citranges, thomasville, ichang lemon, ranpur lime, yuzu and most yuzu hybrids, USDA 119, and swingle citrumelo. These have often been touted in mailorder catalogs as tasty. I am growing several satsumas trees myself and love the fruit. Other notable cold hardy citrus I am growing are sour orange for marmalaide, changsha and keraji for seedy but pretty fruit, indio mandarinquat and various kumquats.
