I love this tea! I’ve had it on autofill for several years. It’s a full bodied black tea without a flowery or spicy flavor. Just a great, plain black tea.
I savor this exquisite tea every Sunday morning. I look forward to it all week long!
A delicious tea with a distinct, nutty flavor that is truly special.
Once again for years I have received the most excellent Golden Yunnan Black Full Leaf Bulk (1 lb) tea I have every drank, will do so forever. ***** 5 stars
This is perhaps my favorite tea. It has a smooth and rich maltiness to it, with no bitterness. I save it for the weekends to keep it special for me
Smooth, without the bite. Delicious. I enjoy daily without adding anything.
I started buying this tea about a year ago. It quickly became my favorite tea
This is the best Yunnan tea I tried and my one and only cup every morning. The taste is deep, a bit smoky and sure to wake you up with a smile on your face.
steeps twice. the description on the tin is accurate. this is a nice occasional splurge.
This has been my daily breakfast tea for years. Great taste and consistent quality. I make a pot every morning and drink it. I used to brew it with boiling water and it turns out great, but in the last couple years I've found brewing it at 200º works a bit better, at least for my tastes. Either way, a great tea.
Such a lovely black tea. It has its own flavor. I drink a few kinds of black teas—this one has become part of my go-to weekly morning sip, even replacing other favorites . I’ve had it cold by accident and loved it then too.
One of my favorite teas. This one is delicious.
This was a new tea for me and now it is my standard every morning. A great strong flavor with its own personality.
Nice Earthy black tea
A uniquely flavored tea, tasty at anytime
I love your Golden Yunnan, it's so tasty and gives me just the right pickup, especially in the morning.
I have been buying this tea for years. It’s my tea for weekends and holidays.
This is our favorite black tea by far! Every cup is a pleasure!
I am a daily tea drinker—typically high quality black or green. This is my favorite because it’s robust and flavorful whether I drink it plain or fancy it up with cream and honey. There is something about the aroma that keeps my nose buried in my mug taking deep, satisfying inhales.
I bought this a little while back after reading about this kind of tea. It's wonderful! I love the smoothness, it's not at all bitter. I will be ordering it again, for sure.
This tea has a slightly different note than the other black teas and is great to alternate to get a different taste.
I have tried most of TROT's black teas and this is my new favorite. I have been drinking it almost exclusively and am back for more.
Our absolutely favorite tea. I know it's a good morning if my husband has made Golden Yunnan as our breakfast tea. I've recommended it and given samples to several people because it's such a great tea!
Just what I expected and wanted!
Perfect tea for morning and afternoon. I love the malty smell.
Golden Yunnan is a perfectly pleasant tea. Many years back it was recommended by a Republic of Tea employee for an iced tea. The recommendation was spot on. We enjoy it hot and cold since opening the first tin. It is warm and comforting in the winter and cool and refreshing in the summer.
I am very impressed with the Golden Yunnan full leaf tea. Its flavor makes a bold statement in a gentle way. I love the rich earthy tones. It is definitely at the top my list of morning or afternoon favorites!
I love every thing about this tea! The flavor is fantastic! Well balanced! Complex and smooth. Have tried other Yunnan tea but none have the quality of this tea. I like it strong so i appreciate the loose tea leaves i can adjust strength.
One of my constant re-buys. I always try new things but then have to order this too because it just hits that spot right in your soul with its smoothness and flavor. This and Organic Assam are my favorites.
I recently switched from drinking coffee every morning to now starting off the day with tea. The slight sweetness and fruity flavor profile of this blend is now something I look forward to in the morning.
Yes, this tea is a little more expensive. But it is SO worth it! Such a delicious, complex flavor unlike any other tea. I like it extra strong with oat milk and sugar.
This is one of my favorite black teas. I find it more "full bodied" than something like a Darjeeling and it holds its flavor even if you add a little cream or sweetener. I'm not a big fan of milk in tea, but my daughter likes it. I love this tea with or without sweetener.
I like that this will make a strong cup of tea. Friends have another Yunnan tea, and I have to use twice the amount of tea to get a cup of tea brewed to the strength I like. Yes, it is twice the price, but it is also overall a better cup of tea for ultimately the same price.
One of our favorites that we purchase again and again. Makes an excellent boba tea at home and also holds up to adding milk and evaporated milk.
We've enjoyed The Republic of Tea Golden Yunnan for years. It's got a wonderful malty flavor to it. We particularly enjoy it on a chilly autumn or winter day. It's always fresh and of top quality and ordering it online is as easy as can be. I particularly appreciate the quick delivery and updates on when orders will arrive.
Love the flavor of this tea...I was only drinking it with Chinese food, but now I enjoy it any day! I switch days with this tea, Darjeeling and Assam for wonderful full-bodied taste varieties.
This is my favorite black tea,smooth,delicious, never harsh.
The Republic of tea is one of my favorite places to shop for tea. They have replaced lost orders in the past.
Will be ordering more!
This is one of the best teas I have ever tried. Malty, mellow and delicious
This tea had body and a slight honey smooth aftertaste. Great both plain and with a splash of milk
Easy purchase and great service and price.
We have been drink this tea everyday for many years, and will continue to do so.
Excellent tea although the delivery is slow.
Love the flavor of this tea. For a black tea it is surprisingly mellow with a touch of citrus
This has a robust flavor, malty and rich and really very smooth so I like it black. You can brew several times though subsequent steepings are not as flavorful. It's definitely my new favorite.
I like a lot of teas but the Golden Yunnan Black Full-Leaf is my favorite over all and having it in full leaf allows me to choose the strength. I find it to be mellow and faloverfull. good in the morning or afternoon.
Love this tea, been buying this tea from RepublicOfTea.com for a very long time now on a very regular basis. If you like a good Black Tea that is very tasty, this is it...
This is my tea. I've tried many different ones over the years, and there are good ones out there. While pricier than some others, the quality is immediately evident when you taste it. With a dollop of honey and a tiny bit of milk, I've not found a better tea.
I like strong flavorful black teas, loose leaf, straight (without sugar or milk). Assam Breakfast is my favorite with Golden Yunnan a close second. Neither develops undesirable flavor if brewed long.
I got Golden Yunnan because it is the closest thing to Golden Monkey that TROT carries. While I wasn't really sure what to expect, I tried this tea with a completely open mind. With that said, I did sort of have Golden Monkey in the back of my mind the whole time I slurped my first cup of Golden Yunnan. Not surprisingly, there are similarities between the two teas, albeit slight similarities. This is more of a smokey flavor with none of the honey aftertaste of Golden Monkey, but that's not to say this one doesn't have its own nice flavor profile. I'm rather enjoying Golden Yunnan, and I'll most likely continue to drink this tea until TROT gets into the Golden Monkey game!
This Golden Yunnan variety is one of my favorites from ROT. It is a great tasting tea that suits me early in the morning and it really can brighten my mood.....try it, and see if you agree.
Fabulous find. Rich, perky, unbitter, forgiving, malty, mysterious, dark, warming, beckoning. This was an accidental find for me and I'm so glad. This now is the number 1 tea in my stash - the one I will not run out of. I drink others, but only so I'll have contrast when I return to this friend. Fabulous, but I recommend 200 degree water - not boily. 1min 45sec. 2nd steep is almost as good as first if kept short
Golden Yunnan is by far my most favorite tea in the world. It's flavor is deep and smooth. I alternate between tea and coffee, and Golden Yunnan is at once a calming and invigorating experience.
I bought the small tasting tin for this one--given the price, I didn't want to take a risk of not liking it--at the same time as 3 other teas. Without my having said anything about it, my husband and son commented on how much they liked the Golden Yunnan. It's a great tea, with a deep, smooth, rounded flavor; truly worth brewing in whole leaf and savoring.
A smooth taste without an overwhelming astringency. Subtle notes of earth and wind in this tea bring one to a level of relaxation that is much in demand at the end of a long day. The full leaf allows for a mellow piquancy that has no equivalent. I will continue to acquire this purity on a perpetual basis.
Pleasurably earthy with sweet undertones. When i feel drained this tea brings warmth and healing. I keep coming back the golden yunnan my brother and I drink almost half a pound of this tea a month.
Golden Yunnan is my favorite tea! I haven't met too many teas that I don't like, but this is my all around, "go to" tea when I really want a great tasting tea. I highly recommend Golden Yunnan; it has a smooth, golden flavor and it tastes great by itself or with food and pastries.
Now I have another favorite. I am a dedicated Oolong tea drinker, but I tried Golden Yunnan for the 1st time, intrigued by the description of "Elevate the Senses", from the cloud-veiled mountains of China. It is everything it is reputed to be. From the 1st sip to the end of the cup and a 2nd infusion, I just love it. I had to write this commentary, so more citizens are inspired to try it ASAP.
Overall the tea is lovely. Wish it were a little bolder.
This was a reorder. Brews up smooth, flavorful without bitterness even when made stronger. A favorite of guests
A nice mid morning or brunch tea Smooth and mellow yet and rich
This is a very nice tea. It is worth the extra money. The taste is relaxing and smooth. I usually buy this and the earl greyer and that gives me a nice choice.
I can't think of a better black tea. This is the one I pull out when I have company, or want something special. It has a lovely black tea flavor, but it's delicate, not overpowering, and not inclined to bitterness. Just delightful. We turned around an avowed black tea hater with this one.
This is a wonderful tea. My first taste a few years ago was a WOW experience. I've tried a few others since then, but nothing compares to this tea. I drink a small pot (or two) each day. I make it very strong and make it at night so it steeps until morning. Add a good amount of milk, and a 1/2 tsp of brown sugar. Heaven in a cup.
