Review of Golden Monkey (Jin Hou)

| Good | Good | Good Value |
Not as good as the offer carried by SpecialTeas but not a bad substitute. Far cheaper than TeaVana. Not quite as full-bodied as S.T.'s but similar in the cocoa\chocolaty flavor.

Upton Tea Imports previously had three Golden Monkey teas listed in their catalog, and they were quite reasonably priced, but I never had the opportunity to sample them before they were retired. They currently still have one listed in their catalogue, and it's a notch cheaper than this one but still in the same ballpark. Whether it's better or not, I can't say, because I haven't tried any of the teas in question. But I've consistently had good experiences with Chinese teas other than their Pu-erh and higher-priced green teas.
