شاي البارود الأخضر

The tight little pellets are a joy to measure out, and watching them slowly unroll in the hot water is half the fun. It brews up a clean, slightly smoky cup that’s become my afternoon ritual, and the tiny leaves pack a surprising amount of depth.

These little pellets unfurl beautifully in hot water, releasing a smooth, smoky flavor that's far more complex than I expected from a green tea. The tightly rolled leaves stay fresh for ages, which is a huge plus since I don't drink tea every single day.

The pellets uncurl into a surprisingly full-bodied cup with a subtle smokiness I wasn't expecting from a green tea. It brews up nicely for a second steep too, though the first infusion is definitely the best.
