A tightly rolled popular green tea, made up of green leaves that 'explode' or rather, unfurl when infused. This tea possesses a slightly fruity flavour. Gunpowder has a greenish dry golden liquor with a light smoke and nutty character.

Did you know, Gunpowder tea gets its name from the tightly rolled pearls the leaves are rolled into, which were actually mistaken for real gunpowder by traders in the 16th century. 

A great gift for someone who loves green tea!

We would recommend 75 degrees celsius water and steep the tea for 1 minute. 

Our Gunpowder tea comes in a red and white bag with display window (100g) or a large white bag (500g or 1kg).
