Description

How it tastes
Bright and lively notes of honey, dried fruit and caramelized sweet potato.

Are you a morning person? One sip of Royal Yunnan Gold will have you thinking you are. There’s nothing quite like this lively yet comforting cup with notes of honey, dried fruit, and undertones of caramelized sweet potato to wake up to. It’s easy to steep, not too bitter, and sips best with breakfast. A black tea totally worth rolling out of bed for.
