GUNPOWDER {IMPERIAL GRADE}

A great daily drinker for someone wanting a full bodied, full flavored, fully stimulating classic green tea.

Tasting Notes: A good gunpowder style green tea should be a nice balance of sweet, smoky, floral, earthy grassiness…and this one is.

Origin: China

Preparation: Use a full Tb per 16 oz. of 175º water. I prefer this tea at around 3minutes (especially on the first steep) but this is one of the few green teas that is relatively forgiving and maintains a sweetness even when allowed to steep a little longer. So make it just how you like it. Good for at least 3 brews.

Moderately Caffeinated

This tea is also available in tea bags !

We do this completely by hand, just like our herbal blends, and each teabag contains approximately 4-5 grams of tea. That’s basically a full Tb of tea per teabag, the perfect size for a large mug or small tea pot. The 10 teabag package contains approximately 1.5 oz of tea.
