PACKAGING GUIDE

Gunpowder is a classic green tea from Zhejiang province, China. As the name implies, Gunpowder tea is made up of leaves hand-rolled into tiny pellets. These resemble gunpowder, and give this tea its distinct name. Full-bodied cup with a hint of smokiness and smooth mouthfeel. Blend Gunpowder tea with spearmint to create the famous 'Moroccan Mint' tea.

TEA TYPE

Green Tea

CAFFEINE

Moderate

Green tea usually offers a gentler lift than black tea or coffee, with enough caffeine for a light, refreshing boost.

STEEP

80° for 2-3 mins

Use the shorter steep for a smoother cup; over-steeping may taste bitter.

fresh from origin

Gunpowder is a very famous tea, inside and outside of China. Gunpowder is widely consumed throughout the Middle East, often blended with fresh mint and sugar. In China, this tea is called Green Pearl tea; the tight roll of the leaves helps retain flavour and aroma for much longer than many other greens. A delicate shine on the pellets indicate the tea is quite fresh.
