From Tealyra

Yunnan Imperial Mengku Old Tree Golden Buds is produced in Yunnan Province; it was harvested in spring from old trees. Ancient, or “old trees” have distinctive characteristics in the resulting tea, because the roots have dug deep down in the soil, far deeper than young trees. This tea truly is aged to perfection, and picked by hand from large leafed branches. Carefully selected leaves and fresh buds are picked at an altitude of over 1,200 meters and are harvested and processed by experienced craft tea farmers.

Our Yunnan Imperial Mengku Old Tree Golden Buds has a deep, and sweet floral aroma, with a rich and full bodied caramelized sweetness. It is malty, smooth and without any bitterness! Experience the unique smoothness of an old tree tea in our fine imperial tea!

Once again Tealyra make a tea sound extra-amazing in the description, and once again they’re right.

On the nose and the palate it delivers exactly what is promised: sweetness, maltiness, and a touch of caramel. There is zero bitterness. This tea is a joy to look at, smell, and drink. Even opening the packet, the aroma is amazing… I could huff that all day.

It’s no secret that Golden Monkey / golden-tipped teas are probably my favourite type, but this is an exceptional (and pricey) example of it.

So far Tealyra have been impressing me. Let’s hope that they keep it up as I go through the rest of my order! :)
