Golden Monkey is one of the oldest Chinese black teas, originating from Tongren in Guizhou Province. It’s cherished for its pronounced honeyed character, achieved through the use of tender young leaves and a careful balance of buds, then gently dried to preserve their sweetness.
Its deep amber infusion reveals a layered flavor profile—notes of cocoa, ripe fig, and dark honey unfold gracefully on the palate. With a silky mouthfeel and a long-lasting finish touched by sweet nuttiness, it’s hard not to fall under its spell.
