China Gunpowder Organic

Rolled tightly into balled shapes, Gunpowder tea was ideally suited for making the treacherous yearlong passage to Western Europe. A chestnut profile much like Chun Mee, with a pronounced astringency punctuated by sweetness. Ordinary but addictive! A second infusion is usually possible.

Preparation: One level teaspoon per 8oz cup of filtered water, boiled and cooled for approximately 7-8 minutes to 80°C/176°F. Allow to brew 1 minute.

Organic cultivation certified by Ceres GmbH for conformity with USDA standards.
