Gunpowder Green Tea
Description
Gunpowder Green Tea – Smoky, Nutty & Bold
A classic Chinese green tea from Fujian province, expertly rolled into tight pearls that unfurl as they steep. Loved in the Middle East and North Africa, this tea delivers a smoky, nutty flavour with a rich golden-green liquor.
What Makes It Special
Hand-rolled into firm pellets (larger than pinhead grade), each leaf locks in aroma and strength. The pan-fired production process adds a subtle smoky note without overwhelming the clean vegetal base—creating a distinct and robust cup that stands up to mint or sugar.
This style reflects its heritage: the tightly rolled leaves were originally designed to preserve freshness during long journeys, making it a practical staple even today.
Origin & Craft
Grown in eastern China (Fujian & Zhejiang), this tea undergoes traditional steaming or pan-firing followed by rolling. The process ensures durable pellets and a consistent flavour.
💡 Tea Lover’s Tip
Excellent when brewed with fresh mint for Moroccan-style mint tea, or served chilled for a refreshing iced blend. Great as a base for iced punches or spiced infusions.
