Bai Lin Gong Fu (aka Golden Monkey) Black tea is made from Fuding Bai Hao "White Pekoe" varietal tea leaves. Our premium grade is one leaf to 1 bud semi-tippy grade. The tea leaves are picked in sets with 1 leaf and 1 bud. The processing allows for a golden-orange furry tip complemented by a dark leaf. Golden tip black teas are favored in China and you will see why when you order this tea. The brewed tea is sweet, viscous, fruity, and floral. Very smooth drinking black tea with a little bit of bite, but not too much. This tea is often referred to as "Golden Monkey" Black tea by western vendors. We always use environmentally friendly packaging of our teas. We never use candy, sugar, or flavorings in our teas. Suggested Steeping: 8 ounces of water 195 F 1 teaspoon 3-5 minutes
