Gunpowder tea leaves are withered, steamed, rolled into tiny balls, and then dried. Rolling renders the leaves less susceptible to physical damage and breakage and allows them to retain more of their flavor and aroma. The flavor of brewed gunpowder tea is often described as thick and strong like a soft honey, but with a smokey flavor.

BREWING DIRECTIONS:
1 teaspoon of loose leaf tea is recommended for every 150ml (5.07 oz) of water

100% natural green tea, brown rice

Gunpowder tea is a form of green Chinese tea produced in Zhejiang Province of China in which each leaf has been rolled into a small round pellet. It is believed to take its English name from the fact that the tea resembles gunpowder pellets used for cannon. Gunpowder tea production dates back to the Tang Dynasty (618-907) but it was first introduced to Taiwan in the 1800s
