Golden Monkey Tea
This is a smooth tasty tea and l love to drink it in the afternoon before bed time.
Nicole Thompson said:
Not that great...
Tried Golden Monkey just to see what it would taste like especially after reading so many positive reviews. It really wasnt for me. I'm sticking with Tippy Earl Gray and Chai, my two favorites.

My Favorite Tea
We drink a lot of tea and of all the brands we’ve tried, and all the types of tea we purchase, the Golden Monkey tea is by far our favorite. When purchasing tea we always look for pesticide free or organic.

This is a Lovely Tea
Golden Monkey has been one of my favorite tea varieties for many years. This is my first experience purchasing it from Golden Moon Tea and it is excellent! Very smooth but full-bodied, no bitterness or astringency to deal with. I typically brew the leaves twice and the second brewing is just as good as the first, making it an excellent value, as well. Overall, you can't go wrong with Golden Monkey from Golden Moon!

Nourishing and Delicious!
Golden Monkey black tea makes my morning brighter and sets me up for a delightful day.
I love so many of Golden Moon's teas and Golden Monkey creates a lovely ritual of self-love.

Great!!!
This tea is awesome! I am ordering it regularly
Margaret Radtke said:
Beautiful tea!
Golden Monkey is a beautiful tea all the way around. The clean and sweet is perfect by itself, but goes great with toast, scones or anybaked goods. My most recent purchase was as a gift for a family member who is crazy about it. Delicious and distinguished! I will continue to purchase it.

Defective container
Hello - I purchased a tea container which was sent to me defective - the plastic is coming off - contacted the company and did not hear a thing - it’s a gift and I am so embarrassed - the tea seems fine not sure if our birthday friend tried it yet !
Sampath V said:
Great flavorful tea
this is delicious and high quality tea. I enjoy Darjeelings but this is a close second. Nice flavor, and high quality from Golden moon as usual.
K said:
Best quality tea
I have bought from many vendors, and I appreciate the pure, clean, delicious taste of all Golden Moon plain black teas. I personally am not a fan of added flavorings. So if you like the real deal, there is no going bag to bags from the grocery store or even wholesale bulk!

Faves
Love Golden Monkey, the sweetest black tea. Coconut Puchong and Detox Tea. Have been ordering these for more than 5 years. The most delicious and flavorful teas. Golden monkey, breakfast. Coconut Puchong, anytime. Detox, evening. Never want to run out. Buy in half or pound quantities. Yum
Symantha O'Byrne said:
Could be the best tea I've ever had
This tea is rich and smooth with delightful sweet notes...I could drink it all day, every day. I just re-ordered it - - - can't bear the thought of running out!
Michael O'Byrne said:
Could be the best tea I've ever had
I bought this on a whim...I knew nothing about it. I fell in love and my life may never be the same again. I'm going to force myself to drink something else soon, just because I have 30+ teas in my little collection, but I'll return to this one. Do yourself a favor and get some. Now. Right now. You're welcome.
Heather Harrell said:
Delicious smoky delight!
I have been drinking Golden Moon teas for many years. I always buy in bulk and have at least five different varieties in my cupboard to choose from each day. I hadn't tried Golden Monkey, mainly because of the price, but decided I'd give it a try. I love this tea! The smoky aroma is delicious as soon as the heat hits it, and the taste with a little oat milk is divine. I'm definitely a convert. Yet another wonderful tea Golden Moon!
David Zarnoth said:
A bit Smokey
A Smooth drinkable tea.
I have enjoyed many different Golden Monkey varieties, This one has a pronounced smoke texture that I am not a fan of.
Janice Janostak said:
Lovely. toasty anytime tea
Although Golden Monkey is classified as a black tea I prefer to brew it as though it were a green tea. At the cooler temp the toasty quality of the tea comes through beautifully. I had been wanting to find a reasonably priced Golden Monkey for a few years now and this one really fits the bill, my wife and I love it as an afternoon or evening beverage.

A Nice Change
I usually like Yunnan Noir type teas but this was a nice change for a time.

The absolute very best!!
After getting some Ceylon tea from I did two decades ago, I searched forever and never found anything comparable until this! This is now the best black tea I’ve ever had. I’m a forever customer!
Wendy Gowen said:
Exceptional tea!!
Exceptional quality tea! The aroma is wonderful! The tea leaves are a great size, no "dust or small pieces". I love that this company takes great care in producing a healthy product. Well done!

I love it!
For my taste, it wonderful. I really enjoyed the smoothness of this tea.
I love knowing it’s organic and your packaging is good.for earth.
Dirt pusher said:
It's OK if you like that sort of thing
This is another fine tea from Golden Moon. It is a black tea that is a bit too smooth for my taste. There are a lot of people that will fall in love with this fine tea.
I like a tea that is a bit more like the English Breakfast black tea. Something that will take a splash of cream and come back asking is that all you have?
Janet M said:
Robust, exquisite
This is one of the finest black tees I have ever enjoyed. It is full-bodied and I can tell that there's more caffeine in it so I just have a cup a day but it is my favorite time of day! A slight sweetness, a smoky finish, and more than able to handle the honey and milk that I put into it. It was an easy choice for gifts this season for my friends! It keeps beautifully in the ziplock packaging that it comes in. I find I use less tea because of its strength so it lasts a good long time. Nothing like loose tea! There is also great peace of mind knowing that this is a clean tea, organic. This is a very easy recommend!
Bernard said:
Golden Monkey
The tea smooth and earthy, not as floral as some with no astringency.
Sandra Melton said:
Golden MonkeyTea, Truly Golden
This was my second order of Golden Monkey Tea. It is a favorite (although with Golden Moon I have about 5 favorites) Just the right amount of flavor and smoothness, truly wonderful.

Superb!

Anne Baisden said:
Tippy Earl Grey
Earl Grey tea is my favorite tea to have each morning and Golden Moon's Tippy Ear Grey is the best I've ever had! Their mix of black tea in bergamot orange is the very best of all Earl Greys in my opinion. I simply can't do without it in the morning.
Sami TM said:
Special aroma
I tried Chinese Keemun tea years ago
I think the golden monkey is kinda close to him together
It gives a slight hint of an earthy flavour
Also, there is a strong whiff of woody flavor that you smell when the wood gets wet with rain
Maura S. said:
Golden Monkey every morning
I have been drinking tea for my whole life and have become a bit picky about it. I love Golden Moon's commitment to providing the cleanest teas. Right now my favorite is Organic Golden Monkey. To me, it is slightly malty and slightly smokey and slightly sweet, but lighter than a typical English Breakfast.
Mary Beth Wenrich said:
I LOVE this tea, plus it has the kick I need in the morning!
EBS said:
Delicious!
Taste is exactly as described. Delicious tea; true to type.
Raidee Swan said:
Delicious
I ordered a variety of black teas to try-- French Breakfast, Golden Monkey, Sinharaja, English Breakfast, and Irish Breakfast. So far, these are my favorite teas. Great, strong flavors that pair well with milk and sugar. I love the fact that the tea is actual dried leaves, not powdery fragments like I've seen with other companies. Highly recommend!
Cory Williams said:
Excellent tea
Strong flavor that does not get as bitter as other teas. “English style” with sugar and milk really brings out the notes of chocolate
Beth the Tea Lady said:
Golden Monkey is delightful
Sipping Golden Monkey tea is like a mini-vacation. It even tastes as good as it smells. I'm looking forward to sharing this with my friends and family.
Donna Goodale said:
Tea is delicious!! Will order again.
K said:
Favorite Black Tea
Nothing compares to this black tea. The sweet and chocolaty notes make it addictive. It's somehow bold yet smooth and is great just black or with milk. I also found adding a little sugar really draws out its unique sweetness. It re-steeps fairly well and prefer it even over a strong breakfast tea.
Sampath V said:
golden monkey tea is excellent
Nice unique flavor with a chocalaty flavor, full bodied.
Teaman said:
A terrific Yunnan!
I love a good Yunnan, a loose leaf tea from the Yunnan province of China. You can get it with no tips all the way up to fully golden. This one has a delicious balance between those two extremes. It has a balanced, smooth flavor that has notes of honey. If you haven't tried a Yunnan tea before, this is a great one to try. I think you won't be disappointed and find this one from Golden Moon to be exceptionally tasty and delicious!
Donna Steeves said:
Best tea ever
If you’re looking for a tea to drink without sugar/milk, this is the one! Smooth and lovely! Doesn’t need any additions!! ❤️
Kathy Walzel said:
One of my new regulars
New tea for me, love it. Nice flavor smooth, not too sweet. Stands up nicely to a little milk.

A great tasting tea. Like that I can get more than 1 pot out of it that still taste great.

Golden Monkey is worth the price. It's my wife's "go to" tea every morning. All the positive reviews are well deserved.
Marie Ramos said:
My favorite black tea
I buy this tea by the pound. It is worth the price (and sometimes you can find coupons online for an additional discount). Truly a premium black tea - smooth and full of flavor. Brew less time if you like it black, longer if you like milk and sugar.
TХ said:
Smooth and aromatic
Golden Monkey is my favorite Chinese black tea. It is mild, aromatic, smooth, and sweet. It is not bitter and astringent at all (very important to me, as I am not looking to add milk and sugar and things to my tea). I will be ordering again soon.
Jerry R. said:
My favorite black tea from China
I've been a long time fan of India's Assam and Darjeeling varieties. I recently purchased Golden Monkey for my daughter, who share how wonderful it was. I tried it for myself and discovered how delightful it is! It may eclipse Assam as my first cup of the day. If you like Assam, Darjeeling, and black breakfast teas, give Golden Monkey a try. It's a refreshing change in the black tea lineup.
Patty Page said:
Lovely Golden Monkey!
Just tried this today and it will be among my top favorites!

The best sencha tea
I drink a lot of tea and Golden Moon's sencha always tastes perfectly balanced.
Cameron McColough said:
Best loose leaf tea!
Ive been a tea drinker for years. I use to use tea bags (premade) and they were alright. I switched to loose leaf maybe 3 years ago and have tried several different brands. Most were decent. But Golden Moon is by far my favorite. I’ll honestly never bother buying anything else again. I lovee the ‘golden monkey’ black tea. Its so delicious and sweet (for black tea) that I rarely use honey anymore. Its amazing. I’m on my 3rd order, and there will be many, many more to come. Thanks for the awesome tea my friends! Much love.

Great Tea and service for years
My Dad turned me onto Oolong tea many years ago, before his death. We have been using Golden Monkey tea for many, many years with perfect quality. Reliable service and professionalism. We buy by the pound.
