Gunpowder Temple of Heaven, green tea
High-quality Chinese Gunpowder green tea unfolds from tight, dark-green pellets into a light golden infusion with a delicate, slightly tangy taste and an invigorating aroma.
Chinese Gunpowder – vibrant, lightly smoky freshness
Gunpowder is one of China’s most traditional green teas, named for its rolled-leaf form that resembles tiny gunpowder grains. When brewed, the leaves slowly unfurl, releasing a fresh, mildly smoky fragrance and producing a clear, golden liquor.
Its taste is crisp, gently bitter, and grassy, leaving a clean finish and a refreshing lift. Perfect for those who enjoy a tea with character — energizing yet smooth, ideal for mornings or afternoon breaks.
