The Organic Golden Monkey Tip Black Tea in this blend is from a rainforest wildlife preserve in the mountain village of Jinao Yunnan, China. Very close to the Burmese border, this village is a beautiful paradise filled with wild elephants and traditional tribal art and dance. One of the last traditional villages to remain focused on their craft, the people are rebels to modern life and live close to the earth and in harmony with the ancient tea trees that surround them. Like Aquarians, they are not likely to conform, and they keep their art at the center of their community. 

This tea is 90% tea buds and only 10% leaf, giving it a lighter, caramel hue and almost no tannins for a smooth steep that leads to a maple-like infusion with a hint of spice & dates. 

With such carefully grown and harvested tippy-tea, there is a preciousness to the cup which is elevated by the deep base notes of the world s finest Vanilla Beans.
