Also known as “Zhucha” or “Pearl Tea”, this Gunpowder is much finer than its predecessor. Just like the classic Gunpowder, this tea is dried in rolling drums. The constant rotation gives the tea its spherical form. “Temple of Heaven” tea features a very tightly rolled ball, which is also a sign of quality. The aroma is softer than that of the standard quality and less bitter. This tea may be enjoyed at any time of the day. If you still find the brew too tangy, try pouring away the first brew and taste the second. Most of the caffeine will also be eliminated in this way..
With this tea we are offering a popular and frequently consumed standard quality, which is drunk a lot in China. It can be consumed at any time of the day and on every occasion. The large-leafed tea is slightly brittle and wiry. The dark, olive-green infusion clearly shows that the middle leaf shoots, which contain less caffeine, have been processed. The cup shimmers in a strong green-yellow tone. The taste is extremely soft and mild with a sweet note. It is ideally suited for green tea beginners and those who prefer mild qualities..

The top quality is carefully dried by hand in pans after wilting and thus receives a flat, emerald-green leaf..

Of particular importance are the differing temperatures used: as opposed to hot steam, the subsequent drying is rather moderate in temperature so as to conserve the nice colour and finely aromatic taste of this subtle tea.
An impressive quality from the province of Zhejian for demanding green tea beginners. This tea is harvested in early April from bushes growing at an altitude of about 500-600 m. The plantation is close to the mountain “Jiu Long Shan” – Mountain of the Nine Dragons. Due to its “wild” leaf structure, it is also called “Criss Cross”.
