This Golden Monkey from the Chinese Fujian Province is a real treat. A sweet cocoa fragrance emerges from the bag and the leaves exhibit a color spectrum of dark brown to auburn. Our new harvest is much tippier than our last, adding to its complexity and depth. The liquor has the soft, rich sweetness of a bittersweet cocoa and imparts a savory lingering aftertaste. A very likeable, self standing tea, highly praised by many of our customers. There are many different qualities of Golden Monkey but only a few have the wonderful cocoa notes we admire.
Recommendations: Use 1 heaping tsp. per 6 oz. cup; heat fresh water to a roaring boil. Steep for 4 min. Good for multiple infusions.
