China Green Tea Special Gunpowder 1 Kilo Guaranteed Authenticity, 2.2 Pound (Pack of 1)

Good tea and very concentrated. Bitter. It requires a lot of sugar.

Very pleased with my purchase! You get A LOT of tea and it's delicious as is and when mixed with other teas. Very fresh.

It's a high-quality pure product in a convenient package.

1) Positive: This does not look like your typical gunpowder tea that is rolled up in little balls or nuggets. It is more like chopped tea leaves or middle grade tea (with tiny parts and powder being low grade and full leaf being high grade). However, it definitely has a gunpowder tea flavor. It is a strong green tea. It is a great everyday tea and of good quality. It is also more than 2 lbs making it an excellent buy. 2) Negative: The packaging is the worst I have seen. The thin plastic wrap was broken on delivery. Inside the box the paper wrap is not enough protection. Immediately remove the tea from its packaging and store so as to avoid light, heat, and moisture. I keep some of the better packing I receive when purchasing teas for reuse and that is where mine went as soon as I opened it. 3) Shipping: I am making this public in an effort to facilitate a change. My tea was left at my front door. No, they did not ring the doorbell. No, they did not knock on the door. Yes, I was home. Yes, I checked the front often. No, they did not leave it at the back like I usually request, but such requests have been ignored in the past. The obvious problem with the front door is that I live on a busy street, there is a fast food restaurant next door, there is a bus stop in front of my house, a commuter train stop in front of my house, and a pedestrian marked cross path with flashing signs right in front of my house. How anyone can be so careless and unprofessional as to leave a package of any kind in such an overly public place is beyond reasoning out. Hence, my need to add this to my review in the hopes that public awareness will promote a change.

No surprises, great tea, gets here when promised, great price.

I've been getting this gunpowder green tea for years now. Never disappointed. I only need a heaping teaspoonful for a whole pot of tea. I steep it the first time for 3 minutes, set the tea ball aside. If I want to make another pot the same day I reuse the same tea and steep for 5 minutes the second time. I keep the teapot on the plate warmer burner on my cooktop and I have hot tea ready and waiting all day long. Such an economical drink. It never gets a tanniny taste like black tea will get.

This is the worse tea, if you can call it tea, that I have ever tasted. There is no aroma or flavor or the normal ‘gunpowder’ taste whatsoever. Dirty dish water may have a better taste. 😡.

Great product. We received it next day and are very happy with the tea.
