This tea was harvested in the late months of spring leading to a great depth of flavour due to the build up of nutrients over the cold winter in the Zhejiang Province. Immerse yourself in the crisp and refreshing embrace of mint, carefully blended to complement the intensity of gunpowder green tea. The soothing earthy aroma and gentle feeling of the tea magic coursing through your veins early in the morning is something I couldn't really live without now. When the rolled tea leaves are brewed, they begin to crackle which is how it got the name "gunpowder tea".Early on, I used to have around 4 or 5 cups of this a day, finding myself confused as to why I couldn't get to sleep until gone 1am in the morning. When steeped in hot water, the tightly rolled pellets gently unfurl to produce a deliciously fragrant and dark-colored tea. Ours is the finest grade of this pellet shaped leaf and when infused unfurls into large, tender tea leaves. I have found in the past that people who try Green tea and previously only drunk the 'run of the mill' daily tea, may not appreciate Green Tea, as it is very different. No one is sure who created the original Earl Grey blend or indeed what it was like but we are confident that our use of the genuine, highest quality ingredients will make you feel that you have only really now discovered the real Earl Grey yourself.
