Premium green teaOrigin:
ChinaThis is a pinhead-grade gunpowder, one of the world's best-known Chinese green teas. The hand-rolled leaves appear as small grey-green pellets, which brew a pale, bright green liquor with a delicate yet fired flavor. This historic tea would have been found in 19th-century general stores across America. It is also available as our American Civil War Green Tea.
Steep like a tea professional and never use boiling water on green tea. 165-175F is the optimal temperature.

I like so many of your green teas, but hadn’t tried this one. As always, the quality is superior to so many tea shops offerings. The packaging, the freshness, the consistency of the leaf. But for me, the flavor profile is not as delicate as I prefer. Not even sure that’s the right word, because it’s still a fine green tea. But don’t prefer it over my other favorites. Always good to try new things so you know!
This is the green tea that i prefer. It does not have a grassy taste. That is precisely what i was looking for in a green tea. I enjoy it hot and cold.
I am not a great fan of green tea, but I drink it for the health benefits. This one has a nice flavor. I would buy it again.
We threw out the others & ordered more from Elmwood.
So far, this is the best green tea I have ever had, from all brands I have tried. It has a smooth taste and bold flavor. Make sure not to use boiling water - use water no more than 180-185 for best taste!
