This traditional organic gunpowder green tea is harvested and produced in the Zhejiang province. Each tea leaf has been carefully rolled into a tight pellet with a fresh and silky sheen. The taste of this traditional Gunpowder Tea is sharp and brisk and often a bit smoky, making it a darker, rich green tea than other Chinese green teas which are typically lighter. It’s no wonder that this tea has been used as a base for Arabian mint tea for centuries, as its assertiveness nature underpins the refreshing qualities of mint.
