Gun powder is a variety of green Chinese tea, produced in the Zhejiang Province of China, of which each leaf has been rolled into a small pellet. Other common names are " Zhucha" in Pinyin or "pearl tea" in China.
This rolling method is most often applied either to dried green tea or Oolong tea. Rolling tea leaves into gunpowder tea renders the leaves less susceptible to physical damage and allows them to retain more of their flavor and aroma.

When buying gunpowder tea it is important to look for shiny pellets (pearl tea), which indicate that the tea is relatively fresh.

Green teas, for centuries the beverage of choice in Asia, is rapidly gaining popularity in the western world. Its natural aroma and widely acclaimed health benefits make green tea appealing to both the tea lover and previously non-tea drinker.
This way of producing green tea allows preservation of the healthy active substances of the fresh leaves so that they are released into the cup at the time of infusion.
