Black tea by Teasome. Golden Monkey (Jin Hou) is one of the most popular red (‘’black’’) teas in Fujian province. The fine, tightly rolled leaves have distinct, golden glimmers, indicating the young buds and a single leaf were from an early spring harvest. This, of course, produces a quality brew; there’s a reason why you can find this tea with bulkier leaves in the majority of shops at a low price. Only a fresh, spring Golden Monkey however demonstrates its true nature - deep cocoa, peppery-mustard notes and an incredible leaf to serving ratio.
Perhaps you are wondering why exactly a handful of leaves are named Golden Monkey? The secret lies, as always, in the combination of Chinese imagination and the tea’s appearance. Fine, supple black-golden leaves are covered in a thick fluff that is somewhat reminiscent of little furry animals.
