Default Congou recommendations?

Do you have any recommendation for Congous (or other black teas)
similar to but still distinct from Golden Yunnan? I prefer to drink my
teas without milk and sugar. I've tried top-quality whole leaf Assam
but not found it to be of my taste. *I also like true Lapsang Souchong
(and Darjeeling, but that's a different category).


There are some very good Fujian congous, including Golden Monkey and
Zhenghe (or Chingwo, depending on how it's transliterated.)

I really like the Zheng from Chado in L.A. - just about the best I've
had.
