You might wonder why this tea is called ‘gunpowder’ in English-speaking countries, although it translates as ‘pearl tea’ from Chinese. It is because its leaves are rolled in a shape that looks like gunpowder. What is more, its slightly greyish colour also creates this association.
We have 2 types of Gunpowder Green tea.
As mentioned above, Gunpowder Green Tea is one of the oldest types of Loose Chinese Green Tea. Its longevity proves how much the Chinese love this tea type.
