A particularly fine example of gunpowder green tea. Each leaf has been rolled into a small round bundle. Rolling the tea renders it less susceptible to physical damage and allows the tea to retain more of the flavour and aroma. This is a superior version of Gunpowder known as Zucha or Pearl Tea. The tea is dried in rolling drums and the constant rotation gives the tea its spherical form. It has a greenish dry golden liquor much appreciated throughout the Middle East with a light smoke and nutty character.

I’ve tried several brands of green teas and this one is the best, it is fantastic quality with leaves which can be used twice and still retain the flavour, so it’s economical too. Would recommend.
I bought both gunpowder green tea and Earl grey tea. Have been using High Teas for a number of years and never disappointed. Quick delivery too.
Really nice green tea arrived promptly
This is a great gunpowder - highly recommend
