Gunpowder is known in China as "Pearl Tea." Its leaves are tightly rolled into small pellets. During the infusion the pellets gracefully unfurl and create a strong-tasting, dark-green tea. The Superna Organic Gunpowder has a very pleasant aroma and aftertaste without the harshness frequently found in some grades. It is a solid tea that can be enjoyed throughout the day and even tastes good when cooled down.
