World famous Gunpowder green tea from China. It derives its name from the Chinese word “Zhucha”, meaning Pearl Tea, and from the tightly rolled shape of the leaves.Although there are several grades available in Pearl tea, the most famous are “Pinhead Gunpowder” and “Temple of Heaven Gunpowder”. In both cases, three factors determine the high quality: Body: Should be small, tightly rolled leaves. Regularity: The size of the pearls should be consistent. Uniform dark color.The Pearl is from the small town of Pinshui in Zhejiang province, China. Zhejiang is the world’s largest producer of green tea with a rich tea culture. Pearl tea is made in early spring. In Morocco and Russia, it is blended with fresh mint and sugar and often made iced. We offer this blend as Moroccan Mint.

Wonderful tea
One of my favorite lose tea. I love the toasted rice flavor with the green tea. It reminds me of coziness. Yes, I would purchase over and over again.

Such good green tea
I’ve re-purchased several times now. I drink this tea almost every day, and it still lasts so long, way longer than boxed tea in bags and so much better tasting.

Great Tea
When the tea arrived I immediately thought what a pretty tin. Then I opened the cover and was so surprised to see another tin cover inside, double sealing the tea for freshness. The tea had a lovely aroma and made a wonderful cup of green tea.

Really good tea, the handle snapped off
I absolutely love this tea. It’s clear, toasty, sort of sweet, and not bitter. It’s a shame that the metallic handle on the top of the tin snapped off after only several uses.

Delicious and Refreshing Green Tea
This green tea is absolutely delicious. I love serving it with a slice of lemon — it adds a bright, refreshing touch that pairs perfectly with my breakfast each morning. It’s smooth, not bitter, and has become a staple in my daily routine. Highly recommend!

Very good green tea
This tea has a nice, mild green tea flavor. The flavor barely diminishes when the leaves are used for the second cup. I was disappointed with the Vahdam Himalayan Green, so I’m very glad I found this!

Great flavor, good value for organic, easy to handle
I have been shopping around for a good value organic green tea. I like to drink green tea every day for the health benefits. I love the flavor of this tea! I’ve been drinking it iced or hot and loving it! I also like that leaves are mostly in a ball shape because it makes them easier to handle and not as messy. Love that it’s organic too!!

It’s definitely personal taste, but I didn’t like the smell or the flavour of this one.
Amazon Customer –
This looks like a pack of 3 tins, but I only got 1.That’s would be acceptable if the tea was great, but the tin that did arrive was past it’s best before date by a full 8 months!This can’t even be returned, so my advice is not to buy…

I don’t enjoy the flavour of green tea, but the roasted rice balances the flavour very nicely. Enjoying it. And the package is so pretty.
