The Tao of Tea, Pearl Green Tea, Loose Leaf, 4.0 Ounce Tin

The Tao of Tea, Pearl Green Tea, Loose Leaf contains 100 percent Organic Green Tea Leaves. World famous 'Gunpowder' green tea from China. It derives its name from the Chinese word ‘Zhucha’ meaning Pearl Tea, and from the tightly rolled shape of the leaves. Although there are several grades available in Pearl tea, the most famous are ‘Pinhead Gunpowder’ and ‘Temple of Heaven Gunpowder’. Tea purists seek only the clean, clear and pure flavor of the leaf. This is because the unadulterated leaf has the capacity to provide an experience which has inspired many artists, musicians, philosophers and monks. Our company is based on this premise and offers great quality leaf that is fresh, flavorful and full of soul. Only a small portion of all tea made in the world comprises the 'orthodox' or full leaf style of processing. In addition, only a few tea areas remain where 'old-style' hand processing is still practiced from tea plants that grow wild or those that have been preserved for centuries. The Tao of Tea works primarily with tea growers that practice this true art of tea making.
