Gunpowder Green Tea #2
Organic, Fair Trade Certified
|
Gunpowder is one of our best selling teas. In order to offer more variety for our Gunpowder fans, we've added Gunpowder Green Tea #2 which offers fuller body, greater astringency and more smoke than Gunpowder #1. However, the tender leaves of this organic, Fair Trade Certified green tea are steamed and then tightly rolled in the same time honored process. When infused, the tightly-rolled pellets yield a dark gold liquor with a nutty vegetal flavor. Legend has it that the name of this tea is owed to a young English clerk who likened the small green pellets to gunpowder. Hot water causes them to open up like flowers and sink slowly to the bottom in graceful patterns. Note: Gunpowder is denser than other teas, so we recommend only one or two teaspoons for a full teapot, or half a teaspoon for one cup of tea.
Ingredients: organic Chinese green tea
Suggested serving size: one scant teaspoon
Aubrey Says: Gunpowder #2 has won me over with its slightly greater smoke and fuller body.
Jeremy Says: Definitely one of our fullest-bodied Chinese green teas.
