Green tea Gunpowder Temple of Heaven BIO – character and origin from Zhejiang
Green tea Gunpowder Temple of Heaven BIO is an organic Chinese green tea from Zhejiang. The tea leaves are carefully rolled into small, compact pellets that resemble grains of gunpowder. Gunpowder owes its distinctive name to this characteristic shape. This green tea has a robust and pronounced character with a fresh, slightly spicy taste. During infusion, the compact leaves gradually unfurl, creating a strong, aromatic tea with more intensity than many milder Chinese green teas. Zhejiang is closely associated with Gunpowder production, with the area around Pingshui being particularly well known for this traditional tea style. Gunpowder Temple of Heaven BIO is an excellent choice for lovers of organic green tea with a pronounced and characterful taste.
