Review — Golden Moon White Tea
Name: White Tea Brand: Golden Moon Type: White tea Form: Loose leaf Review: One simple tea, one simple review. White tea can be a controversial subject.

Review — Golden Moon Moroccan Mint
Name: Moroccan Mint Brand: Golden Moon Type: Green tea, flavored Form: Loose leaf Review: Mint teas and tisanes are ubiquitous, and as a tea reviewer, I confess to getting a bit tired of them.

Review — Golden Moon’s Pu-Erh
Name: Pu-Erh Brand: Golden Moon Type: Pu-Erh, shu/cooked Form: Loose leaf Review: Pu-Erh is perhaps best described as an “acquired taste”.

While pu-erh is often sold packed… Continue reading

Review — Madagascar Vanilla by Golden Moon
Name: Madagascar Vanilla Brand: Golden Moon Type: Black tea, flavored Form: Loose leaf Review: I like vanilla and I like tea, and I like them together, unless the vanilla flavoring is fake and overpowering.

Review — Golden Moon Vanilla Mint
Name: Vanilla Mint Brand: Golden Moon Type: Blend of green and black teas, flavored Form: Loose leaf Review: I confess that this tea had me at first sniff.

Review — Golden Moon Tippy Earl Grey
Name: Tippy Earl Grey Brand: Golden Moon Type: Black tea, flavored Form: Loose leaf Review: It does seem that every tea company has to have its own version of Earl Grey.
