This Imperial Grade Golden Monkey Yunnan black tea is about as high-end as they come! Perfect golden leaves, one bud and one leaf, are hand-picked and processed with a level of care and craftsmanship that is unrivaled. The "Bai Hao" or fuzzy hair-like nature of each young shoot is preserved through the entire meticulous process of selection, picking, processing, roasting, and packaging. They create an amber-colored cup with a natural sweetness and no astringency. Truly rare treat in the tea world that shouldn't be missed!
