China Gunpowder 100g

Use 1 rounded teaspoon per person and 1 for the pot. Boil fresh water, leave to cool for 5 minutes then pour on. Allow to steep for 3 to 4 minutes for the perfect flavour. Serve without milk.

This tea may be re-steeped 2 or 3 times.

Our superb example of this distinctive style of green tea, Gunpowder, originates from Wuyi County, Zhejiang Province on China's Eastern seaboard. Zhejiang's humid, subtropical climate is perfectly suited to tea cultivation.

Legend has it that the tea's name was given by a young English clerk who thought the tiny rolled green balls looked like pellets of gunpowder.
