Description

Gunpowder green tea gets its name from tightly hand-rolled pellets that resemble gunpowder — and from the way they unfurl in hot water. A bold, slightly smoky Chinese green tea with a strong roasted character and a long satisfying aftertaste. 100% pure Camellia sinensis green tea leaves, rolled into tight pellets using the traditional Chinese gunpowder method. No additives, no blending. The dense rolling preserves freshness exceptionally well — gunpowder keeps far longer than open-leaf teas. Naturally caffeinated with a bold, assertive character — one of the stronger-flavored green teas available. The roasted, slightly smoky profile makes gunpowder the traditional base for Moroccan mint tea and a great cup for those who find sencha too light. Steep 1 teaspoon per 6–8 oz of water at 175°F — not boiling — for 1 minute. — The pe Nelson's Tea is a husband-and-wife brand handcrafting small-batch loose-leaf teas in Indianapolis since 2012.
