GOLDEN MONKEY

I ordered a tin of the Golden Monkey tea based on the description--and was not disappointed! This smooth tea is among the best black teas that I've ever tasted. It is the perfect relaxing weekend tea. I will definitely order it again.

As Ben says, this is a smooth tea, great to start the day. It arrived in good time, even considering the holiday shipping traffic jam. Will definitely be ordering more of this & other teas from Golden Moon!

I love the golden monkey - VERY smooth and the tippy grey is amazing.

Gave as a Christmas gift. They are tea drinkers. They seem very pleased!

Delicious tea

Ordered tea on December 9 , 2020. Was looking so forward to having a cup on Christmas morning! 😔

Thank you again for your inquiry. I still have not received my order, but I am looking forward to indulging in tis wonderful tea. Don't know where it is being held captive, but I do know it is not through any fault of your company. Stay safe and healthy. Sincerely, Still waiting in Ohio.

This is an excellent example of a Chinese "Red Tea". (Pay attention to the first minute of the steep to understand.)
One of the smoothest, mildest, most pleasant teas you will ever drink! And drink again!
A slightly crisp, vegetal sweetness infuses the body of this beverage.
Pay attention to and obey the recommended shorter steep time!

Pleased with this seller and the quality of teas to price ratio. Good stuff 👍.

I really am enjoying the Golden Monkey tea I recently purchased. A smooth tea with just the right "body" to it. It is becoming an afternoon regular when I'm needing a little pick- me- up.

I like all the teas I have bought from Golden Moon over several years. I prefer black teas, but drink all kinds depending of mood and occasion, I really liked your Golden Assam which you no longer sell.

Just tried this Golden Monkey tea for the first time after enjoying many other teas by Golden Moon over the past few years. This one is so lovely and has become my morning treat. It's delicious, smooth and energizing without sweetening or milk, but also yummy and soothing with additions. Highly recommend!

We love the teas. They are fantastic. The shipping took far too long and the response from the company was NIL. If you buy from them, pay for the upgrade on shipping or be prepared to way a long time. I mailed a package to Germany, using regular USPS, a day after getting the "shipped" notification from this company and it got to Germany before I received the teas. Again, great teas, terrible shipping and a lack of customer support.

If u like both those teas, then you'll appreciate this blend. I believe Yunnan, is often referred to as Golden Monkey, they have similar golden tips & smooth taste w/ or w/o sugar. I don't use cream w/ my teas. I don't like to dilute the essence of the tea's flavor, unlike coffee w/ it's bitterness, you need cream. Quality teas, nope.

I had gotten a sample pack of other teas a few months back and really enjoyed the quality. I prefer black teas so I wanted to find a good go to for my mornings. My tea cart can get rather full of the varieties I keep on hand but this golden monkey is front and center. My teens love it as much as I do. It’s a clean, smooth tea with subtle but strong flavor. Not too much and not too little. I will serve ordering this again and again.

Golden Monkey is our afternoon tea, enjoyed black (no milk). We brew it for 5 minutes, although it does not get bitter if it's even longer. Tried Golden Monkey from other vendors but none is as delicious as the leaves from Golden Moon.

I have been ordering Golden Monkey for years from Golden Tea. It is my favorite tea as I like bold smooth black tea. No other that I've had can match it. In the past I had ordered Golden Monkey tea from other tea distributors. Golden Moons is the best. I would strongly recommend this tea without any reservations.

Had family in for a short post quarantine visit and served the Golden Monkey, everyone loved it. We like strong British tea with milk Golden Monkey was a hit!! Follow the steeping guidelines, for a great cuppa.

I love this tea. It tastes delicate and smooth, and there is no bitterness. I highly recommend it. It makes a great latte, too!

My father, and my grandparents, drank tea. That was era when commonly Orange Pekoe dominated the common store shelves. But decades ago I had the pleasure of being served a cup of perfectly prepared and brewed Yunnan and I’ve never gone back to ordinary. Golden Monkey is that experience, again and again.

I was introduced to the Golden Monkey black tea by a relative and I'm amazed at how good it is. A very good tea with just the right amount of caffeine. I'm enjoying every sip.

If I want a tea treat...this is it. Smooth, slightly sweet, comforting. A tea fir sipping and savoring. It makes me calmer just knowing I am making it.

Delicious!

Iced or hot, this is a smoothly delightful tea!

I enjoy many of the different flavors. Having a variety is wonderful for anytime of day.

Golden Monkey tea is my new tea when I want something special.....it’s unique flavor makes it something to celebrate with !

I love this blend! It is so smooth and has none of the bitterness of your typical black tea. I highly recommend for anyone who loves a very smooth cup of tea. It is light and easy on the palette. It is a great intro to tea for anyone who is a newcomer.

This is my special-occasion tea - the tea I reserve for good company (or a much-needed boost): exquisite flavor and mouthfeel. Highly recommended

It’s very subtle Golden Monkey.

The taste of Golden Monkey Tea is fantastic. I am using exclusively your company for my tea needs.

Loved and enjoyed the teas I ordered from Golden Moon.

Everything worked out just fine, no complaints, will but from Golden moon tea again.

I ordered this along with a special 3-for-3 deal but forgot to use the coupon code. Golden Moon’s customer service refunded me the difference. They were very good about reaching out quickly. As for the teas, I am happy with the quality and packaging and would order from Golden Moon again. I love the detailed flavor profiles and so far have found them to be accurate. I hadn’t tried Golden Monkey tea before and I like it.

Tried is yesterday and can't wait to try it iced. It will be superb iced.

I have enjoyed Golden Monkey tea for several years and was so delighted to discover the Golden Moon company. It has been a pleasure dealing with the, the tea arrived very
quickly, beautifully packed and I am already enjoying it. I look forward to many future dealings with this company and recommend them highly.

It is low quality tea. The leaves are broken and powdery, they are not full and meaty and the tea does not have the characteristic taste of lGolden Monkey at all. It's practically tasteless. The leaves aren't sinking but just float. I am very disappointed

This was the first time trying any type of Golden Monkey. I loved the flavor and have been drinking it using the kung fu brewing method. There are complex tastes to be had at each brewing time. I enjoy about 10 brews from one set of tea leaves.

This tea is very smooth and satisfying. I would recommend it to everyone.

I love tea and Golden moon tea is the best tea I've had.

I was trying to find an less expensive tea than Golden Monkey from Teavana. I'm sorry to say yours still doesn't taste just right from me.

Been getting this tea for years now, and I am never disappointed. Delivery is prompt, packaging is great, and the tea tastes amazing.

So far, my favorites are the Golden Monkey, and Coconut Pouchong...divine!

Love the tea Makes a magnificent clear and tasty ice tea. Makes a great gift.

I decided to expand my tea selection, and I ordered 5 different organic teas from Golden Monkey. All the teas were of good quality and good flavor. I look forward to trying more.

This tea has a lot of subtlety to it. This gives it a soft and smooth character you don't always get with black tea, and it's one of my favorites. The only downside in my opinion, is that because of the subtle complexity of this tea it's easy to over-brew. If you're new to tea, or unfamiliar with how brewing effects the leaves this is an easy mistake to make. Logic would say that to get a stronger flavor you would brew the tea longer, and technically this is true. However, what you're really doing is pulling out different chemical components from the leaves that give it a more astringent taste. This isn't necessarily bad. It compliments some teas, and ultimately you're the one drinking the tea; so brew it to your taste. But, if you're looking to brew a pot or cup that plays to this tea's strength, then less is more in this case. If you want stronger flavor try using more leaves.

I love all the teas I have tried at Golden Moon. Very smooth flavors, easy ordering and fast shipping. I recommend the tea to all my friends.

After reading the glowing reviews, I expected more from this tea. It doesn't hold a candle to Golden Monkey tea I received as a gift several year ago. What I received was merely an average black tea, with nothing special about it. Not worth the price, in my opinion.

This Golden Monkey tea is the BEST black tea ever! I really appreciate the organic nature of the tea. Thnx for such a superior product!!! 🐵. katie

I love Golden Monkey tea and order every month from this company, I can give a glowing review to this tea and the company.

This is a subtle but flavorful black tea; Sweet and light. The quality of Golden Moon tea is first class.

This is a remarkably delicious tea! I really enjoy Golden Monkey! It's so refined and tasty - sweetish and with a hint of chocolate. It's perfect to sip in the afternoons because it gives me a nice caffeine boost but not too much for me. I've tried many of the Golden Moon teas and have been thoroughly satisfied with each and every one! Great teas!

This is a premium tea I order when I want to treat myself. Delicious.

The teas are tasty and I love that they're real, no weird artificial junk. Price is reasonable and arrived quickly. I will definitely be buying more!

Great flavor. Another good one from this great tea company

Golden monkey has a subtle complexity that I have never experienced with any other tea. The gentle sweetness and touch of chocolate flavors are just the tip of the iceberg. If you haven't tried this, you really should. If you have tried it, you should get more. In fact, I'm going to order some more right now!

This is a special tea. It’s subtle and full bodied. Love this tea.

I just purchase golden monkey for the first time and had a cup this morning before going out Christmas shopping. It was great!

I'm normally a coffee drinker, but this is a wonderful tea, and the natural sweetness means that I don't have to add milk or sweetener. I love this tea!

I have enjoyed my teas so much that I have purchased more to give as Christmas presents. I plan to try more blends as soon as I can stop being obsessed with the Masala Chai and the Golden Monkey teas.

The Golden Monkey is a lovely tea with caramel sweetness along with light earthy flavors. I like it with raw goat milk which brings out the creamy caramel hints. It's earthiness is light though, not dense or rooted, like other black teas, but rather like wind blowing over the desert after a rain.

I'm trying all the samples and, I haven't stop. I find the difference type of tea especially good and the Eral Gray to be very good with a rich flavor. I will update you about the other teas.

Love the Golden Monkey Tea!! A good wake me up tea!!!

It is my favorite black tea -delicious, smooth, sweet and satisfying hot or cold.

Golden Monkey is delicious 😋 I have a new favorite tea 🍵

This tea is by far my absolute favorite. It's my "go-to" tea morning or afternoon . . . hot or iced.

I really like this tea with honey. It has replaced my morning coffee. I will definitely be buying again.

Sweet and light and caffeinated! Goes well with honey and milk. A delightful addition to my tea pantry.

The golden monkey tea is delicious. Slightly sweet and nutty. It’s my favorite black tea!

We drink many differnt kinds of tea, but Golden Monkey is the hands down family favorite! We usually make a pot on Sunday mornings and start the week off on a high note.

I got five sample size teas and they are all outstanding! I drink a lot of tea, and this tea is some of the best I’ve had. The quality is apparent. I will definitely be a regular customer!

I ordered Golden Monkey and absolutely love it!!!! Will definitely be ordering more!

I ordered a few of these teas..one was English breakfast it was very smooth.I also have the vanilla, it’s really good, I keep wanting to come back to it..I haven’t tried my other one yet though.You can tell after you brew them and look at the leaves that this is quality tea.will be ordering more for sure!

One of my favorite teas. Hint of sweetness, just enough flavor without being overpowering. Can drink with no sugar or honey. Tasty hot or cold.

Only complaint, I bought the largest size. Would've liked a canister of some sort for that price point.

This is a great tea!!! On my second order. Awesome company to deal with, I’m so glad I found them on the web. Great customer service & fast shipping. Quality all the way! I alway try s few new teas when I order,

It doesn't get any better than Golden Monkey tea! Good hot or cold! This has been my favorite & go to tea since I discovered Golden Moon. I keep it on hand at all times! Thanks for a great product!

I have several favorite Golden Moon teas and Golden Monkey is one of them. It's my go to late morning pick-me-up. I like the bright clean taste and smell. Usually, I like it black, but sometimes add a pinch of coconut palm sugar to take it up a notch. Another perfect tea from this company!

I became a fan of golden monkey tea years ago from a retailer that is no longer in business. I searched for golden monkey tea elsewhere, but could only find blends - which are a far cry from replicating the taste and smoothness of this tea. Golden Moon Tea's golden monkey tea is the real deal, plus it's organic and priced a little lower than I paid in the past. I am now using Golden Moon Tea's auto-delivery to get my favorite black tea ever delivered each month.

Amazing Tea! Wonderful taste with lots of choices plus excellent customer service!

Has a nice, light, distinctive flavor. Very pleasant. I've set it up for a scheduled monthly delivery. I switch to the pur-eh, which I also enjoy, when I want a stronger flavor.

This is one of my several favorites at Golden Moon Tea. I first discovered them about 20+ years ago one day when I stopped in a shop in Harvard Sq. It was years later I went to their online site and discovered more of their teas and the ability to buy in bulk. They are my favorite tea supplier.

I discovered Golden Moon Tea a year ago and it’s some of the best tea that I’ve enjoyed. Their customer service is very good! And they have great advice for enhancing your tea drinking experience. It’s also nice to know that they care enough to keep harmful chemicals and plastic away from their leaves. This is great tea! Enjoy!
