Yunnan Gold Black Tea: Yunnan Gold Black Tea is a full-bodied, strong black tea that is an excellent morning brew. This strong tea has an underlying sweetness that interestingly lends itself very well as a late evening tea too. It's a black tea with none of the maltiness that some others of the same genre have and that is exactly what makes the Yunnan gold black tea so special. It will wake you up pretty good in the morning with its deep earthy notes with the sweetness of cedar and honey thrown in for good measure.
