Bold, smokey, and rolled into pellets that look exactly like what they're named after — Gunpowder Tea (Camellia sinensis) is the green tea that doesn't apologise for having opinions. Each tiny, tightly rolled leaf resembles an old-fashioned gunpowder grain — a shape that not only gives this centuries-old Chinese tea its dramatic name but also preserves its flavour and freshness far longer than loosely processed green teas ever could.

Watch it brew. The pellets unfurl slowly in hot water, releasing layers of fresh, grassy depth with a distinctive smokiness and a clean, brisk finish that makes every other green tea taste slightly underdressed by comparison. The liquor is a vibrant golden-green. The aroma fills the room before the cup reaches your lips. This is a tea that earns attention at every stage of the process.

The base of traditional Moroccan mint tea for centuries — brewed strong, poured high, and sweetened generously — gunpowder is the green tea that holds its character through mixing, blending, and bold flavour additions without disappearing into the background. It is strong enough to anchor a blend and complex enough to drink alone with nothing added.

Blend with Peppermint Leaf for a Moroccan mint-style tea that tastes exactly like something served in a brass teapot in a souk and poured from a dramatic height. Pair with Lemongrass for a citrus lift that cuts through the smokiness and gives the whole cup a bright, refreshing contrast. Mix with Ginger Root for a zesty green tonic that layers heat and spice against the grassy depth in a combination that builds from the first sip. Combine with Chamomile for a calming edge that softens the boldness without losing the character that makes this tea worth drinking in the first place.
