Overview
Shelf Life: Store at room temperature for up to 6 months.
Origin: China
Product ID: 9575
Boom, pow! The name of this strong green tea from China comes from the fact that the tea leaves are rolled up into tiny little balls that “explode” when splashed with hot water. Rolling tea leaves into these pellets renders the leaves less susceptible to physical damage and allows them to retain more of their flavor and aroma. And what a flavor! This tea has a a distinctive nutty/oak taste and produces a dark green cup. Blend it with fresh mint, sugar and steaming hot water to make your own traditional Moroccan mint tea!

Loose tea sounds a bit expensive when you're looking at it online, and then it arrives and you realize "this is going to last me forever" because tea doesn't weigh much so 4 ounces is a lot and 8 ounces is a whole lot and a pound will last most folks a year. This has a great taste for both hot and iced tea. No sweetener needed. Unless you just like that sort of thing.

This is my all time favorite favor of green tea. It’s crisp and refreshing. No bitter aftertaste.

Great green tea! We are tea drinkers, especially during the cold season. There's nothing more warm and delightful than a mug of green tea. It is good for the brain alertness, too!

My husband doesn't care for tea, but I've coaxed him to try the Gunpowder; he takes two or three sips actually. Good stuff.
