About Organic Gunpowder Supreme

Our Organic Gunpowder Supreme green tea is a superb example of this famous Chinese tea at its very finest. Each tea leaf has been rolled and coiled into snail-shaped curls, unfurling in hot water into deeper-green-than-usual colour, with a light grassiness, and a nutty, almost oak-like flavour. A 'supreme' example means that each leaf has been carefully picked for consistently high quality of shape, size and colour.


About Gunpowder Supreme

Gunpowder Supreme is a special variant of traditional Gunpowder tea, known for its compact form and meticulous processing. This tea variety is typically made from the youngest and tenderest tea leaves, which are handpicked and then rolled into small pearls. This process helps to better preserve the aromas and nutrients within the leaves.


Cultivation

This Organic Gunpowder Supreme is grown in the high mountain regions of Zhejiang, China, where the tea plants benefit from mineral-rich soils and a temperate climate. Organic cultivation ensures that no synthetic pesticides or fertilisers are used, preserving the environment and achieving a purer taste.


Effects

Gunpowder tea is renowned for its invigorating effects due to its moderate caffeine content. It contains many antioxidants that help combat free radicals in the body and boost the immune system. The polyphenols in the tea can also promote heart health and stimulate metabolism. Additionally, this tea can help lower cholesterol levels and support digestion.


How to enjoy

Owing to the more complex nature of this Chinese green tea, it makes an exceptional iced tea with lemon and sugar, or blended with fresh mint on a hot day.
