Gunpowder Green Tea

Tightly rolled green tea leaves shaped into little pinhead pellets resembling gunpowder. Stays fresh longer than other green teas because of its compressed form. Steeps a great cup with slightly grassy notes. 

This tea contains a bit more caffeine than most other green teas. Used by some athletes to improve endurance. 

Use 1 teaspoon per 8 oz. cup. Steep at 185º for 3 minutes. Tea can be re-infused multiple times by adding 1 minute to each additional steep.
