Description:

Golden Monkey tea is also known as “Panyong Wang,” the king of high-grade black teas. The tea term “Monkey” in China refers to the fuzzy golden down on the leaves. The golden down provides texture and smoothness to the brew.

Only certain tea plant varietals can produce golden-colored tip leaves. The golden color emerges during processing after an accurate withering (moisture drying of the leaves). Few areas in Fujian contain this type of tea plant. Other areas known to have golden-tipped varietals are Yunnan and Hunan provinces in China and Assam in India.

The flavor of Golden Monkey is an uplifting and full-bodied brew with a honey-like sweetness and a very pleasant, toasty aftertaste.

Ingredients:

Organic black tea leaves
