From Chicago Teahouse

A classic Gundpowder, a special edition, is much finer than regular Gundpowder. It features a soft aroma and is less bitter.

Another sample from the Chicago Tea Festival. It’s been a long time since I’ve had a Gunpowder tea. This brings back memories from when I went to China on a study abroad with my college. The Temple of Heaven is quite amazing.

Dry Appearance: Some shiny, some dusty. Tightly rolled into balls. Dark, greyish green. Smooth to touch.
Dry Aroma: Drying. Plaster?
Quick Rinse. (They say you should rinse the majority of the Chinese teas you buy)
Rinsed leaf aroma: Already experiencing some deep and complex notes. Dark fruits and marzipan.
Flavor: Roasting notes of charcoal and composting leaves.
Wet Leaf: At first, it seems somewhat plain, and you wonder if it was stored wrong but they are just complex notes braced with in roast. Deep fruity notes that hide amongst the plaster, and almost a slight cologne note.

Am I sure this is a good tea but I remember now why I don’t typically drink it.

On a side note: I had those business spam callers. Absolutely annoying.
