Black tea
Description
From the cloud-veiled mountains of Yunnan Province, the birthplace of tea, Golden Monkey is made exclusively from the buds of the plant, making it the black-tea counterpart to Silver Needle. Its complex, velvety liquor imparts notes of creamy cacao and cedarwood, tempered by a pleasant earthiness with just a hint of sweet yam and honeyed peach. These young buds of the tea plant are incredibly rich in theanine, an amino acid that may aid relaxation and improve mood.

Brewing Instructions
General Guide:
- Add tea leaves to a teapot, fill-your-own tea bag or infuser basket.
- Use 1 to 3 teaspoons (1 tablespoon) of leaves per cup (8 oz) of water. Adjust to taste.
- Bring fresh, cold water to a rolling boil, allow it to cool slightly, then pour water over tea leaves and cover.
- Infuse (steep) leaves between 2-5 minutes; 3½ minutes is a good average that works well for most tea types. Do not over steep or tea may become bitter. If you prefer strong tea, do not over steep; simply use more leaves.
- Remove bag or infuser from water or strain leaves. Enjoy!
Water Quality: Tea is only as good as the water used to prepare it. Avoid distilled or unfiltered tap water, which can limit tea’s flavor. Bottled spring water or filtered tap water is ideal.
Water Temperature: Most teas taste best when prepared with water around 195˚F (just below boiling) however, some teas require a lower temperature or they may become bitter.

Smooth, deep flavorI tried this tea because it sounded interesting, and I have not been disappointed. It's delicious, and has such a deep, earthy flavor that almost reminds me of an Irish breakfast. It's delicious and could easily replace my morning coffee. I'll definitely be buying this again!
