Green tea from Japan famed for its unique shading process. Gyokuro, meaning pearl dew, is among the finest of Japanese teas. Our "Moonlight Gyokuro" is made solely from the prized tender buds gathered in the early spring flush. Three weeks prior to plucking, tea bushes are shaded from the sun. The fruits of this hard work are evident in each cup. The result is a gentle tea with an intoxicating fragrance and truly sublime taste.

Country of Origin: China Manufacture Type: Steamed green tea Grade: Superior Gunpowder Infusion: Medium green with golden notes Information: Gunpowder is a green tea with surprising body and captivating almost nutty green tea taste. Legend has it that the name Gunpowder was given by a young English clerk who thought the tiny rolled green balls looked like gunpowder. The tea leaves are specially selected for quality, size and style. They are then rolled into very small tight nuggets. Gunpowder tea keeps a lot longer than other green teas and is favored because of this characteristic. The leaves for Gunpowder are only plucked during April and May when the quality of the green leaf is at its highest. The leaves are steamed and tightly rolled in a time honored process. This gunpowder produces a reasonably strong dark-green brew with a memorable fragrance, a slightly bitter but pleasant flavor and a long lasting finish. Gunpowder is more dense than other teas so if you are making a teapot full you only require one or two teaspoons for a teapot. Chinese exporters recommend gunpowder for iced tea flavored with lemon and sugar. Gunpowder tea is also very popular in Morocco where the leaves are boiled and mint and sugar are added. Hot tea brewing method: When preparing by the cup, this tea can be used repeatedly - about 3 times. The secret is to use water that is about 180F or 80C. Place about one teaspoon in your cup, let the tea steep for about 3 minutes and then begin enjoying a cup of enchantment. Iced tea brewing method: A rule of thumb when preparing fresh brewed iced tea is to double the strength of hot tea since it will be poured over ice and diluted with cold water.
