Pure Green Tea - Gunpowder:
Our Pure Green Tea offers a full-bodied cup with a deep earthy flavour and a hint of smokiness and has a smooth feel in the mouth. The leaves are picked from larger leaves later in Spring and the tight roll of the leaves makes the leaves themselves more robust and helps the tea to retain flavour and aroma for much longer than for many other green teas. Its robustness combined with its compact size, it is one of the reasons for its huge popularity all over the world.
From the Hanzhou region of the beautiful, hilly province of Zhejiang on the East coast of China. This tightly rolled tea, Zhu Cha in Chinese, is called Gunpowder in English for its resemblance to gunpowder pellets. Gunpowder green tea is widely consumed throughout the Middle East, and is often drunk together with mint and sugar which is then usually referred to as Moroccan Mint.

LuLin Teas:
We are so much more than your average tea merchant... we are an artisan producer of tea. We love tea and we create teas that will make you fall back in love with tea!
We source and import (directly from tea gardens and producers whenever we can), and we have our own Urban Tea Factory where we blend our teas in-house using only 100% natural ingredients and flavours. We manufacture all of our plastic-free teabags as well as packing all of our teas, using compostable or plastic-free packaging for all the products it is available for (the packaging market hasn't quite caught up to us yet for all of it!), we even use plastic-free tape on our shipping boxes.
