When John Harney started in the tea trade over 30 years ago, there were just two green tea offerings from China: Gunpowder and Chun Mee. Though our selection has expanded greatly since then, many people are very familiar with and enjoy Gunpowder's sharp, charred flavor.

Edward J. ★★★★★

The tightly rolled pellets unfurl into big whole leaves after steeping, and the second infusion is honestly just as good as the first. Smoky and smooth without any bitterness at three minutes.

Michael C. ★★★★★

I've been drinking gunpowder green tea for years and this one has that proper smoky, slightly nutty thing going on. The little rolled pellets hold up to a second and third steep without going bitter on me.

Steven T. ★★★★★

The pellets unfurl into a surprisingly smooth, grassy cup that still has that classic punchy bite I look for in gunpowder. I've been brewing it in my gaiwan all week and the leaves hold up beautifully for three steeps.
