Its name, \u201cgunpowder\u201d, comes from the tightly rolled tea leaves that look like small pellets and slowly unfold during infusion.<\/p>\n<p>This special processing helps preserve the aroma. In taste, Gunpowder green tea is strong, tart and spicy, with a fine smoky note. This makes it suitable as a pure infusion, but also as a base for Moroccan mint tea with mint and sugar.<\/p>\n<h3>Gunpowder green tea from China<\/h3>\n<p>Gunpowder is a traditional green tea from China and one of the best-known rolled green teas. Its compact, pearl-like leaves open in hot water and create an intense infusion.<\/p>\n<p>Our China Gunpowder Green Tea is ideal if you enjoy a strong green tea with clear tartness and a slightly smoky character. If you like expressive green teas, this tea is a good choice.<\/p>\n<h3>How to prepare China Gunpowder Green Tea<\/h3>\n<p>For one cup of Gunpowder green tea, use about 1 teaspoon of tea per 200 ml of water. The ideal water temperature is 75\u201380 \u00b0C. Let the tea steep for 1\u20132 minutes. This creates a strong, tart infusion with a fine smoky note.<\/p>\n<p>If you prefer a milder cup, shorten the steeping time or use a little less tea. China Gunpowder Green Tea can also be infused several times. Each infusion brings out new taste nuances.<\/p>\n<h3>Why China Gunpowder Green Tea?<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Traditionally rolled tea leaves<\/strong> \u2013 compactly processed and aromatic in the cup<\/li>\n<li><strong>Strong, tart taste<\/strong> \u2013 with a spicy note and fine smoky character<\/li>\n<li><strong>Several infusions possible<\/strong> \u2013 for different taste nuances<\/li>\n<li><strong>Versatile preparation<\/strong> \u2013 pure or as a base for mint tea<\/li>\n<li><strong>Traditional green tea from China<\/strong> \u2013 known for its rolled leaf shape<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Taste &amp; aroma<\/h3>\n<p>China Gunpowder Green Tea tastes strong, tart, slightly spicy and finely smoky. The first infusion is usually the most intense. Further infusions reveal softer and more delicate notes.<\/p>\n<p>This tea is a good fit if you enjoy strong green tea. It is also a suitable base for <a href=\"https:\/\/teasense.ch\/en\/product\/moroccan-mint\/\">Moroccan mint tea<\/a>, where Gunpowder green tea is traditionally combined with mint and sugar.<\/p>\n<h3>Storage<\/h3>\n<p>To preserve the aroma, store the green tea in a dry, cool and dark place. It is best kept in airtight packaging and protected from moisture as well as strongly scented foods.<\/p>\n<p>Looking for a milder alternative?
