An EXPLOSIVE tea classic!
Gun Powder is a very famous Chinese green tea with a long history. The production of Gun Powder began in the late 7th century. The leaves are rolled into balls resembling gunpowder, from which the tea gets its name. Further referring to the name, the taste is also strong and slightly smoky. In a cup, Gun Powder is yellowish green.
After picking, the leaves are steamed before shaping. Steaming stops the oxidation of the tea and ensures a beautiful green color. Gun Powder is rolled tightly, so its aromas are preserved much longer than unrolled green tea. Rolling also makes the tea more physically durable.
Green tea is rich in flavonoids and L-theanine. They help with stress, calm and improve concentration. L-theanine also produces a feeling of pleasure. Green tea helps the stomach function and speeds up digestion. Gun Powder in particular has more theanine than other green teas, so it is more invigorating. Gun Powder is a popular drink among athletes.
