From Zhejiang, grey-green late harvest green tea leaves are rolled to form gunpowder pellets.
Full bodied, exceptionally assertive and pungent tea with a persistent bitterness...definitely for those who prefer their tea stronger. Gunpowder is also the traditional base tea used in mint tea preparations in Morocco.

This brewing method is a good starting point, since water at 180°F is warm enough to extract satisfying flavor, while still being cool enough to limit bitterness or astringency. To change the strength of your brew, try adjusting the amount of tea leaves you use instead of changing the water temperature.
