"Golden Monkey is the hands down winner of this black tea sampler pack. At first I couldn't figure out the lovely lingering taste and have decided after several cups that it reminds me a bit of warm butterscotch. The other teas in this pack were good but very similar in taste to me."

"I'm trying to get to know teas, and this was a good way to start. I haven't liked all of them, but I think Yunnan Jig could become one of my absolute favorites. Would never have tried it without the sampler. "

"This is a fabulous sampler! I've been meaning to learn more about the different types of black teas and this has been a great help. I tried teas I wouldn't have thought to order otherwise and found new favorites. For example, the golden monkey is amazing and now I'd like to order this in a larger quantity. Fabulous set!"

"This sampler of black teas is great. I have already tried the Keemun Encore and it rich dark smokey flavor is awesome."
