Also known as “Zucha” or “Pearl Tea”, this Gunpowder is much finer than its predecessor. Just like the classic Gunpowder, this tea is dried in rolling drums. The constant rotation gives the tea its spherical form. “Temple of Heaven” tea features a very tightly rolled ball, which is also a sign of quality. The aroma is softer than that of the standard quality and less bitter. This tea may be enjoyed at any time of the day. If you still find the brew too tangy,
try pouring away the first brew and taste the second, which will eliminate much of the caffeine should you so desire.
