Pearl Green Tea, Loose Leaf, 4.0 Ounce Tin

China's world-renowned Gunpowder green tea derives its name from the Chinese word "Zhucha," meaning "Pearl Tea," as well as the tightly rolled shape of the leaves. While there are various grades of Pearl tea available, the most acclaimed varieties are "Pinhead Gunpowder" and "Temple of Heaven Gunpowder." The high quality of these teas is determined by three key factors: Body, Regularity, and Uniform dark color.

The Body of the tea should consist of small, tightly rolled leaves, while the Regularity refers to the consistent size of the pearls. The Uniform dark color is also an essential characteristic of the finest Pearl teas.
