Why Black Pearl Gunpowder Tea?
Legend has it that black gunpowder tea was first created to trick pirates into thinking they'd been sold real gunpowder, to buy a local village time while it was under attack.
The tea is still made to match that original style. It's picked, dried, and then hand-rolled to create the distinctive gunpowder shape, similar to green gunpowder tea. The brewed tea is bright with a golden hue, with notes of earth, burgundy, and a little honey on the finish.
Try this black gunpowder tea and discover for yourself why it has been passed on and enjoyed for generations.

Use 1 tsp per 8oz of boiling water, and let steep for 3-7 minutes.
