Gunpowder Temple of Heaven, green tea
A high-quality Chinese green tea featuring a bold character and a clear, light-golden liquor. Its tightly rolled, dark green pellets unfurl beautifully during brewing, unveiling a subtly smoky aroma and a powerful energizing effect.
Gunpowder / Temple of Heaven is one of the most iconic and traditional Chinese green teas in the world. It owes its distinctive name to its unique appearance — the premium tea leaves are tightly rolled into small, glossy pellets resembling gunpowder shot. Upon brewing, these pellets slowly and dramatically unfurl, releasing a vibrant, crisp, and subtly smoky aroma unique to high-quality Gunpowder tea.
The palate delivers a pleasant, bold strength and a gentle briskness with a fresh grassy undertone that instantly invigorates and tones the body. Its bright, light-golden infusion and robust profile make it the ultimate choice for mornings or afternoons when you need a boost of clean energy and focus.
