Gunpowder

description

Discover this variety of the famous Chinese green tea. To produce this tea, the leaves are dried, softened with steam and then rolled before being dried to prevent fermentation. It is a process common to many green teas, but the particularly tight and dark pellets of this variant are what give it its famous "Gunpowder" name. It has a balanced and clean taste, but requires a correct preparation to avoid bitterness.
