Few teas produced in the world make the Royal grade and we are proud to offer this tea. It is made from high-quality buds that are painstakingly hand-picked and sorted. These tender, young leaves are covered and sun withered before oxidizing in temperature controlled rooms. With a careful balance of heat and moisture, the sauna-like environment causes the tea leaves to turn gold rather than black. Every few hours, the leaves must be turned over, which is done by hand..for forty days! This labor intensive process yields an exquisite masterpiece. Golden Yunnan Royal Grade tea has deep, malty flavors with top notes of citrus and lychee. Each complex cup invigorates the senses and and elevates the day to royal status.

Top tier tea

This tea is about as good as you can get. Brews up light golden has a pleasant aroma and world class taste that has no bitterness. I will order more of this one. If you're thinking about giving it a try skip the sample you won't be sorry.

so good, but worth the price?

This tea is delicious. It's the only one I've seen with the "high" caffeine level, which I didn't feel when I drank it in case you're worried about caffeine. While this tea is very very good, I've found that it's flavor is similar enough to other black teas that I'm not planning to buy more. If money were no object then I would definitely keep this tea on hand.

Nice smooth tea

I really enjoy this tea. Smooth, pleasant, and (for me) a great transitional tea for me as I move away from being a coffee drinker.
