Golden Monkey is my top favorite although I love every tea I've tried from Whispering Pines (and I've tried at least a dozen). I've also tried tea from at least 10 online companies over the years and now only order from Whispering Pines. They have the most flavorful teas of any vendor and I have also found that when I've oversteeped their teas, they do not get bitter!
